How about a great childhood?? 

This was such a perfect idea, thank you, Paul. One that I truly enjoy offering to my clients, whether they have children or grandchildren. It is an opportunity that makes me happiest when I know that I can be a vessel for showing kids the way to Mother Nature at Fishhawk Lake. Memories that can shape a human far into the future and for generations to come.

Be sure and leave your heartfelt comments on Paul's blog....he deserves it!

One of the luckiest things that can happen to you in life is, I think, to have a happy childhood...

I think the greatest gift you can give your kids or grand-kids is to give them the most happy and drama free childhood you can. Also don't forget to include a heavy dose of love!

It's hard to realize that some kids never get to experience a connection to nature - so sad.

You are so Kind Gayle; thanks for the re-blog! The picture is of my 2 year old grandson who loves to go with me to the beach and throw rocks in the water. Someday, I want him to remember that grandpa wanted him to experience a simple pleasure between just the 2 of us...

Gayle and Paul   It has always scared me to think that I grew up with Bambi and Snow White...Walt Disney, while others in different parts of the world grew up with guns and violence.  Childhood is to be treasured!

For me it really doesn't matter what I did I fell I could have done more. I'm sure most parents feel the same

Sending a happy kid out into the world makes it a better world and they are the stronger for it as well. High self-esteem cannot be underestimated how good it is for the person. Thanks for Paul's re-blog.

James, if you're aiming for perfection, what's wrong with that?

Gary, one of the main reasons why I won an acting scholarship is because my mom believed in me and coached me to the point where I went into that audition absolutely KNOWING my part, SOLID. It made a huge difference.

Hi Gayle,

I agree that a wonderful childhood will help give your children the best start in life but truly we always feel we could have done more, spoiled them too much, didn't spoil them enough, and so forth. We do the best we can and thank goodness mine have grown up and gone to college and working hard and they seem adjusted and happy. I feel my job is not over but have backed off some. 

Great post by Paul and thanks for the reblog.

Teaching children a love for nature is so important.  They will be taking over when we are gone!
