My hands are small; please don't expect perfection whenever I make a bed, draw a picture or throw a ball. My legs are short; please slow down so that I can keep up with you.
***
My eyes have not seen the world as yours have; please don't expect me to see things the way you do.
***
I'm only little for a short time, please take time to explain things to me about this wonderful world.
***
Don't scold me for my in- quisitiveness. Treat me as you would like to be treated.
***
I am a special gift from God; please treasure me as God intended you to do, disciplining me in a loving manner.
***
I need your encouragement to grow. You can criticise the things
I do without criticising me.
***
Permit me to fail, so that I can learn from my mistakes.
***
Please don't do things over for me. And please
don't compare me to
my brother or sister.
***
Please don't be afraid
to leave for a weekend
together: Kids need
vacations from parents
just as parents need
vacations from kids.
***
Please set a good
example for me to follow.
I enjoy learning.
