OUR DREAMS VS THEIR DREAMS

It’s funny isn't it how when our children are born as silly as it seems we have dreams for them well before they ever have a chance to dream. We see that beautiful baby and so many dreams we quickly conceive… We really cannot help ourselves…it’s parental nature I believe. But…as they grow and dream their own dreams we find there comes a day… when their dreams become our dreams… and we put our initial dreams away. But being parents we continue dreaming… yes, new dreams are unveiled… dreams that are more general and a little less detailed. We still dream with great intensity, with pizzaz and energy and style! We dream they will be healthy, wise, kind, generous and always have a reason to smile. And even though they’re not living our initial dream… I mean…how many children do? It’s funny isn't it…how just knowing they are living their dream has made our dreams come true.
