Whether you are a parent or not, I hope what I share here helps you find hope and tools that help us feel whole... Please pass this blog on to anyone you know that has experienced sadness, disappointment, trauma, abandonment, or anger in their past. What am I talking about: The more I get to parent, the more I realize how important it is for me to heal my own emotional baggage, so I can be an emotionally healthy example as we guide the next generation to be all that they can be.

Creativity
My two amazing stepdaughters are definitely creative! They would go through a roll of tape per week if we had the resources to buy them that much and a big enough house to display all of their sculptures.
Since EVERYONE seems to notice this, I definitely have adopted the lense of creativity for looking at them, looking at our home and family. Today, I noticed that the same kinds of things that we would see at creative when children do them aren't considered creative when adults do them.
So what is the definition of creative. I've decided that for me, it is going to mean anything that is done in a way that no one else (that I know of) has done it.
How freeing and affirming! Now I notice how very creative I can be, even when I'm not trying to be!
I'll continue to enjoy the girls' homemade Mother's Day cards and gifts with great joy! Now I can enjoy my own efforts with the same joy. How delightful!
