How many times in the day does your voice break the sound barrier? There are times to be quiet.
After great conversations for about one-third of our trip, my son took a deep breath. Settled in the car and going along our way, my youngest says, “There are times to be quiet.”

Little did I know he was referring to how I was continuously speaking. Speaking of the little things I noticed as I was driving over the hills and threw the woods because we were off to Grandma’s house.
He could not believe how I could continuously talk for no reason in his opinion.
But in my opinion, it wasn’t just for no reason. It was being observant and aware as to what I was seeing.
So many of us are doing life with our eyes closed. The last thing I want for my child (or me for that matter), is to miss something that is right in front.
Wearing blinders are good to a degree, but can suffocate the reality of what needs to be seen and heard.
Our conversation continued to the point of agreement. Use your mind to think!
The K.I.S.S. ~ Use your mind to think!
“Think, think, think,” says Pooh Bear.
I must say it’s interesting the way a child views life. For my son to acknowledge that I have many thoughts tickled me. At least I know he is listening.
But it is a reminder that we as parents need to use our mind to think before we talk.
You have a great impact on what your child hears. So make every word count.
- Be willing to admit if you speak out of turn or out of anger.
- Be open to listening to the responses to what you have spoken. Silence is golden.
“Your words are treasured, so spend them wisely on little ears.” ~ Kristianne Wargo
Remember, there are times to be quiet.
QUESTION: Where in your life with raising your child or communicating with people can you be quieter than heard?
“Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!“
