Life Moment: Parenting Inspiration – Kind Words

Heloise "Lois" Ridley, MBA, MA —  October 14, 2015

 

I will try to remember to use this verse which popped out at me this week 🙂 We have been adjusting to a few significant changes in the Ridley home with a shift in the many lovely faces of our large family and new logistics. It’s been pretty “sticky” to live this verse.

I personally did a few mommy time-outs and definitely sent many to their spots to regroup. ?

This statement from Proverbs is a helpful reminder. It’s a good one if our kids struggle with being mean to their siblings. Once the learn it the only need us to say the first part and pop… Recall will bring it back up.

“Kind words heal and help; cutting words wound and maim.”‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭15:4‬ ‭MSG‬‬

Sticking Our Children To God – Audio Video

Heloise "Lois" Ridley, MBA, MA —  June 17, 2015

Praying Momma Art Work Review: Iris Fine Arts

Heloise "Lois" Ridley, MBA, MA —  June 10, 2015

If you get to know me personally, you will notice I love art. Particularly paintings & drawings. Sculptures are fascinating to me but photography rocks. Matisse was the best of the classical world but I am enjoying this posted artwork from the Iris Global website. I was fishing for information on the Harvest School that my son is attending this summer as any snooping parent would for more details….and found an art treasure.

Praying Momma; an excellent watercolor that says it all. You can see her intense connection with God as she prays to Him for her son. Wow!

The  Iris Fine Arts page on the Iris Global Website https://www.irisglobal.org/multimedia/fine-arts#4 will lead you to other gorgeous paintings as well.
