Daily Prompt: Ready, Set Go / Little People

Set a timer for ten minutes. Open a new post. Start the timer, and start writing. When the timer goes off, publish.

Time to loosen up and have some fun, fun with words

HOW ABOUT A 70′S SORT OF STREAM OF CONSCIOUSNESS WITH A PINCH OF E.E.CUMMINGS? Now I AM DATING MYSELF BECAUSE HE WAS THE UNORTHODOX POET OF CHOICE IN HIGH SCHOOL IN THE 70′S. Yes THE 70′S!!!

children

simply little people

people

not dolls

Not reflections of our

own egos

not characters

to fulfil our unfulfilled dreams and ambitions.

children. toddlers

even babies

unique,

definite personalities and characters

look back once they have grown

and discover the seeds of the man

within the toddler

a mystery and a delight

to discover each individual personality

encourage watch to grow in a

unique manner

 

About these ads

Melanie Jean Juneau is a petite wife, writer and mother of nine children. When the words "The Joy of Mothering on a Hobby Farm" popped into her head as a subtitle for her short stories it was like an epiphany for her because those few words verbalized her experience living with little people. The very existence of a joyful mother of nine children seems to confound people. Her writing is humorous and heart warming; thoughtful and thought provoking with a strong currant of spirituality running through it. Part of her call and her witness is to write the truth about children, family, marriage and the sacredness of life, especially a life lived in God. My writing is humourous and heart warming/ thoughtful and thought provoking with a strong currant of spirituality running through it.

    I often refer to children as “little people” as well. It’s nice to hear someone else refer to them with dignity and respect!

    Very cool! My brain was scrambling to write something coherent.

    Thank you for your kind comment on my blogger site. I would just like to say that I am a fast typist. I attended a speed typing course when I was at school and won the diploma for fast typing. I typed for ten minutes only. I did not count the time I needed to set up this post with the photo, otherwise I would not have written half of it. But I only wrote for ten minutes. I spend about an hour or so just thinking about what I want to write whilst I am doing other things, so when I sit down I know what I want to say. the only thing that sometimes gets in the way is the computer. It does not always react as fast as I do. It just so happened that the cat’s episode at the vets happened in the morning. I only get the daily post at 14.00 hrs in the afternoon in Switzerland.

The only thing that could kill you living with nine kids is pairing socks.
