We had the poem "Children Lear...Hi Heather :) <br />We had the poem "Children Learn What They Live" by Dorothy Law Nolte and Rachel Harris. http://www.noogenesis.com/pineapple/Kristone.html<br />We also had a reading from The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran. http://www.katsandogz.com/onchildren.html<br />These are both marginally different verses from what we had.<br />It was such a long time ago I can't recall much else! Overall we just wanted to dedicate our lives to bringing Charlotte up in a Christ-like manner. It wasn't overly religious but I do like the idea of looking to Christ (and others) in bringing up children, as a role model to look up to and be guided by. We lit a candle and we had everyone join in a prayer of dedication to helping us stay on track with the way we want to bring her up (and to help as well, like it takes a community bring up a child kind of thing). It's been quite good re-reading the verses and making a re-commitment. :)Mamoosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05581150561728017702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-603159599455882122.post-86530005171971327902012-06-08T13:10:53.741+12:002012-06-08T13:10:53.741+12:00What were the readings you did?
