JoAnn Williams Report this author if you suspect they are involved in any fraudulent practices. I am a mother, grandmother, and retired school teacher. But I am also many other things. I grew up in rural Montana and still live in rural Montana (the best place on earth, by the way). Besides teaching school for many years, I have spent a lot of time helping my husband with the ranch work. One year, on Valentine's Day, he laid a pair of brand new red hay hooks on the seat of the pickup so that they were in the shape of a heart. My boys named me "Hayhook Annie" and said I was the best "hooker" around! I like people and especially enjoy helping others to be able to help themselves. My website, BabyBlanketBabe, was created with the idea that I could help people have a pleasant time shopping. The website features excellent quality baby gift products. The need for baby items stays with us no matter what age we are. Some friend or relative is always having a new baby. Most of my products are personalized, unique, and useful. Please take a look.

Apparently the child finds some sort of pleasure in touching or kinesthetic experiences.

On my wall hangs a cross-stitched sampler which reads "FRIENDSHIPS LIKE FLOWERS NEED TENDING TO BLOOM". Isn't this true with many things in life? A rosebud begins to open because its bush has been well tended by weeding out the bad stuff, feeding it the good stuff with soil and minerals, and seeding that soil with plenty of moisture. A baby, like the rosebud, begins his life with his mother cleaning up the bad stuff, feeding him the good stuff, and nurturing him with love and affection.
