Affections

When I got home from work today, I swear my dog gave me a kiss. I got home and the dog greeted me enthusiastically. I started to make my way into the kitchen. I had to make dinner. The dog wanted to go outside, so I let her outside. I was there with her for a little while. Then, I came inside, she followed me inside. When I got inside I grabbed some items to grill on the barbeque. She followed me outside. This continued. I am working on this now and she is laying on the couch nearby. I feel as if the dog really has affections for me.

If only we could know as readily that people were affectionate towards us. My kids need to know how I feel about them, even though I may be occupied at the moment. Do your kids know they are loved? Do you know how to let them know you are thinking of them? Do you know how to show them that they are worthy of love?

I not only tell my kids that they are loved but I show them that they are loved. It is much like the dog who greets me when I get home. I am happy to see them. I let them know and feel that they are valued, by spending time with them.
