“Toast Tuesday”…

Toast Tuesday!

 

Dominque Browning is my Tuesday Toast Blog…Slow Love Life…

I found Dominque’s blog a while ago and find myself gravitating to it when I need comfort and beautiful photos of life.

Her bio is impressive but more than that, she is a real person, who as she says in the title of her book … Slow Love: How I Lost my Job, Put on My Pajamas, and Found Happiness.

A writer’s life is complicated… it may seem romantic from the outside looking in…Dominque shares herself, which is all a reader can ask..RIGHT?

I love this blog and by now you are probably sick of hearing about the “Tiger Mom” on this blog and everywhere else. But I encourage you to read this piece and subscribe to “Slow Love Life” to enjoy some wonderful thoughtful writing.

It seems that this author’s experience somewhat parallels the “Chinese Parent” although her mother was French so it has a little different perspective.

There is some humor in realizing that children do not come with an “owner’s manual” so we try to do the best that we know how.

On a daily basis, I am amazed with the number of wonderful resources available to the parents of today. But, they are resources and parents need to tailor them to their child and their own experiences.

A child is a wonderful gift, unique in every way…
