Encouraging children

I read with interest your article on encouraging children. As a grandparent I discovered a fun and easy way to do it. I had never heard of anyone doing it before, but I thought it was neat. Upon the birth of each granddaughter, I dubbed her with a special name from Grandma. Our firstborn, Madison, became “Grandma’s Bundle of Joy.” Our second born, Brianna, became “Grandma’s Ray of Sunshine.” Each one learned her own special name early. Each one enjoys the fact that it is not shared with her sister.

My Name Is Gossip

Thank you for your article on gossip. I looked at a few articles—all of them good. However, this one was the most helpful. The story about the rabbi [was helpful]. As you said, you can't change people. However, I can change how I receive them, and this article helped me. Thank you.

— L. Arnone

Special thanks

It is difficult to believe that anyone else could possibly inspire the articles in any of the publications of UCG other than God through His Holy Spirit. A special thanks to all of you.
