In case you know an engaged couple who could use some pre-marital counseling - it can now be done online! SYMBIS (Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts) is a 40 minute online Inventory taken by each partner which generates a 15 page color report of strengths and areas for the couple to work on. Couples can locate a Facilitator/ Counselor in their area to guide them through the report and help them find marital success and fulfillment. As a Facilitator, I thoroughly enjoy working with couples in my area. www.symbis.com/couples

Great explanation (short) of why and how this calming technique works so well! Use it for yourself and teach it to your kids!

This is our hope

Why you should stop feeling bad about all those books you buy and don’t read.

When I'm an old lady, I'll live with each kid, And bring so much happiness just as they did. I want to pay back all the joy they've provided. Returning each dee...d! Oh, they'll be so excited! When I'm an old lady and live with my kids. I'll write on the walls with reds, whites and blues, And I'll bounce on the furniture wearing my shoes. I'll drink from the carton and then leave it out. I'll stuff all the toilets and oh, how they'll shout! When I'm an old lady and live with my kids. When they're on the phone and just out of reach, I'll get into things like sugar and bleach. Oh, they'll snap their fingers and then shake their head, When I'm an old lady and live with my kids. When they cook dinner and call me to eat, I'll not eat my green beans or salad or meat, I'll gag on my okra, spill milk on the table, And when they get angry I'll run if I'm able! When I'm an old lady and live with my kids. I'll sit close to the TV, through channels I'll click, I'll cross both eyes just to see if they stick. I'll take off my socks and throw one away, And play in the mud 'til the end of the day! When I'm an old lady and live with my kids. And later in bed, I'll lay back and sigh, I'll thank God in prayer and then close my eyes. My kids will look down with a smile slowly creeping, And say with a groan, "She's so sweet when she's sleeping!" -by Joanne Bailey Baxter Like--> Doctor ASKY
