Never apologize to others for their misunderstanding of who you are.

My wish for you is that you have so many things to be grateful for that you can’t get your heart around it all. 🧡

However, if this is not your finest hour, that’s okay too.

Gratitude isn’t all about what’s going right.

It’s about finding a little light in this moment we’re in. 🧡

The reverberation of gratitude expressed right now, in this very moment, becomes a gift for the future.

Like an affirmation, it changes our energy and we find ourselves in a new story, with a new beginning and a new perspective.

Remember that gratitude makes every single day precious.

And it’s the seed of all abundance.

So let’s plant seeds as we send prayers to all those for whom gratitude is far away today. xo Mary 🧡

November is Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) Awareness Month, a time to shed light on the experiences of Canadians living with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. In our recent article, we speak with two patients and a leading gastroenterologist to uncover IBD gaps in care that too many face. From long wait times and delayed diagnoses to the emotional and financial strain of managing a chronic illness, their stories reveal a system under pressure, and the resilience of those determined to change it.

The Canadian Digestive Health Foundation (CDHF) is highlighting these stories to raise awareness of the real barriers patients encounter and to advocate for more equitable, accessible, and continuous care for everyone living with IBD.

A child’s self-worth is just as fragile and precious as their physical safety. The way we speak to them, defend them, and stand up for them becomes the foundation of how they see themselves. When parents guard a child’s inner confidence with the same seriousness as they guard their well-being, they help shape a strong, secure, and grounded adult.🩷

When parents handle disagreements respectfully, children learn an invaluable lesson—that conflict doesn’t have to feel scary, loud, or hurtful.🤎

This is so true. Abusers will spend so much time and energy to look good outside the home. Then, when their partner (or child) starts telling the truth about what is happening inside the home, everyone thinks they are crazy. https://carolineabbott.com/2017/04/why-do-people-often-take-the-side-of-the-abuser/

If your child seems hesitant, clingy, or afraid of making mistakes, you’re not alone. Many parents wonder why their child won’t take risks or trust their own abilities.

Here’s the real reason: Children can only step out into the world and emerge when they are strongly rooted. A sense of safety—emotional, relational, and felt—opens the door to curiosity, problem-solving, and growth.
When a child feels anchored to us, they ask more questions, recover from mistakes more easily, share their feelings more freely, and step into the world with greater confidence.

Safety isn’t spoiling. It’s the starting point of development. When we become their safe place through deep dependence, they grow, discovering the courage to become themselves.
