Getting This Going

My daughter convinced me I ought to do this. Melissa...you are a 'nudger' for me...thus, I am nudged into writing. Something I have always thought I would do...should do...wanted to do...now, I have the time and I think something worthy of saying.

Now, what do I say that interest someone other than myself?

I hope to use this blog to share some thoughts...ideas...opinions that I have had throughout my career and life. I have watched kids accomplish amazing things and I have also unfortunately watched them stoop to such levels that my heart ached or my frustration felt like it belonged on a universe that couldn't be reversed.

I hope you will tolerate my random style as I identify my blog style.

I hope to share insights about what it felt like to watch what we do to our kids and a few things I learned along the way.

I hope to hear what you think.

I hope to hear about your experiences.

I named my Blog Lunch Box Thoughts from Julie because of all the years I watched my little kiddos in my school who had parents who cared enough to write them a lunch box love note--I hope to expand this further as I become blog able. Kids deserve love, tenderness, kindness and parents with integrity...whether a lunch box love note or some other gesture of their affection...kids deserve to be the center of the universe for just a little while.

Forgive my lack of blogging etiquette as I am sure there is one and in time I will learn the language--the rules...the way. I love to learn new things, so why not a new challenge?

Thanks sweetie pie Melissa for the nudge.

Lunch Box Thoughts from Julie Blog #2 coming soon.
