Don't miss it

"If I wasn't paying attention, and if I was afraid of the time Ethan spends at the computer, I would miss all of the creativity and learning happening. Worse still, Ethan might too, because my worry would become his burden."

Words

Please be careful with words, because they say what you're thinking. Be careful with thoughts because they affect the way you're responding to people.
