They have the same emotions we do, just different triggers and navigating how to meet their needs positively is sometimes hard but the development of an authentic relationship is very worth it.FabulousMamaChronicleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00555022025559998636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5352349300184483080.post-15459300719697458402012-03-04T20:56:52.169-08:002012-03-04T20:56:52.169-08:00Yes, time is a big thing for us, too.
