BUT first, to be able to afford it, we are moving all of our stuff to my mother in laws and will be staying with her when we get back from Italy until we can formulate a better plan/budget or a miracle happens. I would love some advice on this. By the way, my son Hudson is 18 months.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03585189825197677167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1142420778742259252.post-35634989050078817782011-06-06T11:29:28.515-07:002011-06-06T11:29:28.515-07:00Ania.

I second what everyone has already said, it is so wonderful to hear how you communicate with Antek on a regular basis, and during changes. I truly believe that the way in which you handle the changes, and the ways in which you show Antek, will help build within all of you patterns for moving through life with grace and beauty. Enjoy your stay in New Zealand. <br /><br />I have spent time there and love the country!<br /><br />~ClaireRayan Anastor Photographyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13313544219128927008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1142420778742259252.post-38796570692561306632011-04-11T16:47:55.518-07:002011-04-11T16:47:55.518-07:00Hi Ania,

I work in a centre in Auckland and am also doing my Masters of Education at the University of Auckland I travelled to the Pikler Institute to train in 2004 and 2006 and to the USA to do my RIE I training in 2008. It would be great to meet up with you and your family if you are able to.<br /><br />Regards,<br />Katherine Bussey<br /><br />My contact details are: katherine @ thelearningcentre.co.nzUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05188188872627248158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1142420778742259252.post-79678018767571924652011-03-23T17:38:06.772-07:002011-03-23T17:38:06.772-07:00Thank you so much, I always appreciate the comment...Thank you so much, I always appreciate the comments... everyone does I guess :)<br /><br />Janet, honoured to read 'thank you for inspiration' from you... I hope you know how much we keep being inspired by you in our journey. More to come, hopefully. And I do agree - a lot of people feel strange telling babies what they're doing, what's going on... habit we have to keep reminding ourselves about all the time.<br /><br />Christina - Thank you. I really appreciate the comment.<br /><br />Lisa - although we have been parents only for the past 10 months (boy, time flies) I think we learnt finally to trust our instincts and not be too concerned about the 'looks'. It takes time though to start believing that you KNOW what you're doing. Both you and Janet have been a great help in getting where we are now.Aniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06093124859310191719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1142420778742259252.post-16282302805655812892011-03-23T15:44:05.643-07:002011-03-23T15:44:05.643-07:00Ania,

Wrong, we thought, and kept doing what we thought was right." - I so appreciate how you listen to and follow your instincts, and how much you trust Antek.<br /><br />This is just so beautiful. As I was reading,I felt soothed and comforted. I wish all babies could have the opportunity to experience the gentle, respectful care and consideration you show Antek. Thank you so much for sharing with us, and congratulations and lots of joy as you<br />continue on this new phase of your lives together!Regarding Babyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13062138894388124577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1142420778742259252.post-80128975102954537682011-03-23T11:52:11.614-07:002011-03-23T11:52:11.614-07:00What a lovely post!

You were very considerate and careful and took his point of view.Christina Kesslerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17211115412008591435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1142420778742259252.post-14598684696717602862011-03-22T16:08:45.329-07:002011-03-22T16:08:45.329-07:00Ania, I have goosebumps again.

I want to be your baby!<br /><br />I have actually been thinking all day about how difficult it is for parents to really talk to babies...about the important things, like LIFE -- what's happening right now and what will happen soon. Even the wonderful parents in my classes who know they should tell the baby before picking him up, don't seem to do it. I can only imagine that they feel too embarrassed and awkward...or something! Your story demonstrates the power of talking to babies, keeping them informed and included -- treating them like important members of the family. Thank you so much for the inspiration!janetlansburyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13587477986802823109noreply@blogger.com
