A little bit about moi:
I am a mom, a nana, a sister, a woman, a friend, a human being…a youth counsellor, Family Life Educator.
I have been working in the helping profession for over 25 years and volunteered in various capacities from youths to seniors.
Tournesol is my nom de plume for haiku and other Japanese form poetry here at Tournesoldansunjardin https://cheryllynnroberts.wordpress.com I hope you enjoy reading through my daily waka.
I also have another blog "Stop the Stigma" where I may stand on my soapbox now and then and hope it will become a place to drop in and share or comment on issues important to you. In that vein this could be a great way to learn from each other.

I take that as a compliment if a line shocked you. I changed that line so many times and came back to this original thought.

Oh!!! I love both quotes!! The second one reminds me when my children were at a stage of resisting…and wanted/needed a bit of a fight. I would have to hide my smile and look stern…if I smiled or said something tinkerbellish, “Ah mommy still loves you” that would send them off in a puff:)

I wondered for a moment. Rose is one of my all-time favorite woman character names. Jim is my favorite guy name. 🙂
