Stand Still

By Abby Kail, Contributor Leave a Comment

If only time could stand still.  Sometimes I would say it feels repetitive.  As a Mother, I repeat myself so often and the question, “how many times do I have to tell you?” is one so often asked it’s possibly etched into my children’s core.  You ask the same requests of your children day in and day out.  Time is on repeat.  Repetition is a marvelous thing.  Just think, it’s how we shape our children’s character.  Our repetitive requests will guide and guard their lives.  I am moved by Charlotte Mason’s writing, “Educate the child in right habits and the man’s life will run in them, without the constant wear and tear of the moral effort of decision. Once, twice, three times in a day, he will still, no doubt, have to choose between the highest and the less high, the best and the less good course. But all the minor moralities of life may be made habitual to him. He has been brought up to be courteous, prompt, punctual, neat, considerate; and he practises these virtues without conscious effort.”  Yes, time is fleeting but it’s also standing still and staring you right in the face.  Take time to repeat (and be ok with it), your child’s future depends on it.

A Place at the Table

By Abby Kail, Contributor Leave a Comment

Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.  – Helen Keller

A table set for these marshmallow lovers.  Plates filled with cookies and crumbs.  A warm and cozy fire.  Burned marshmallows to go around.  We are finishing this year in style.  A celebration for what’s to come.  There is always room for a little one here.

Lost

By Abby Kail, Contributor Leave a Comment

Never let us reflect upon small annoyances, and we shall be able to bear great
ones sweetly. Never let us think over our small pains, and our great pains will be
easily endurable. Charlotte Mason
A smorgasbord of choices.  This tree or that tree.  Cypher’s Christmas Tree Farm had plenty of fabulous trees in front of us.  Each of my children would have enjoyed one in their rooms.   It seems they were lost in the millions of prickly needles.  Lost in the detail of the tree.  Whether it was too large, too small, too fat, too skinny, too green or too brown.  Field after field and filled with so much character.  So many choices and yet unable to choose.  Lost.  I’ve been lost in this crazy year of ours.  In the details of our “prickly” day.  Love the encouragement from Charlotte Mason, “Never let us think over our small pains, and our great pains will be easily endurable.”  The little pains of each day that cause us to endure this whole year altogether.   It may have taken us getting lost in the details, to be found in the bigger picture.  Finding joy in the prickliest of days.

A Sunny City

By Priscila Barros, Editor-in-Chief Leave a Comment

This year has been full of ups and downs and everything from going to your local store or even a walk has changed. Although there are a lot of unknowns right now, we try and create an atmosphere of thankfulness around our kiddos. Looking for the little signs that make us smile or laugh.

The Little Souls

By Abby Kail, Contributor Leave a Comment

2020 has been a lot of be kind to others and show grace. It’s been a low year for EVERYONE.  Our children teach us to live where we are.  Be there.  Every minute of it, soak it in. On a sandy beach with rocks galore, each rock was unique and intriguing to them.   Rocks are dull, sharp and hard (that’s one way to look at it).   However, they are extremely fascinating – at least to these little ones.  Even in hard lifeless rocks these little ones can find pleasure and joy.  Life will always give you rocks – can you cleave a diamond?

Good thoughts bear good fruit,

bad thoughts bear bad fruit

and man is his own gardener.

Ruminate

By Abby Kail, Contributor Leave a Comment

I had other intentions when we went barn hunting several weeks ago.  I was caught up in the day to day activities, how quickly the sun was setting and as always FOOD.  Yes, those are some of the details in our day and I was caught up in one too many.  We left the house in a rush and hurried to the big red barn but it was too late.  The sun was close to setting and the barn was in a valley.  I told the children we weren’t able to explore the barn that day but we would look for another exciting (kid-friendly) venture.  I had forgotten this spot existed.  A small back road with the smallest hill of sand was just enough to exhaust their last bit of energy.  Yes, the sun was going down and the fall chill was in the air but these little ones weren’t phased.  Our children teach us so much, don’t they?  Whatever comes our way we have the ability to turn the corner, the ability to change our minds about our situation.  Reflecting on their positive outlook and flexibility was a breath of fresh air at the day’s end (and I was able to join in).

What Are Heavy? by Christina Rossetti

What are heavy? Sea-sand and sorrow:

What are brief? To-day and to-morrow:

What are frail?  Spring blossoms and youth:

What are deep?  The ocean and truth.

Generous Visits

By Abby Kail, Contributor Leave a Comment

Somehow, not only for Christmas

But all the long year through,

The joy that you give to others

Is the joy that comes back to you.

And the more you spend in blessing

The poor and lonely and sad,

The more of your heart’s possessing

Returns to make you glad.  – John Greenleaf Whittier

Our niece came for a visit.  What a treat!  Our oldest daughter (and 2nd son – the twins) and she are only 15 days apart.  So what to do?  We decided to see some of the local “hot spots”.  It was early enough in the morning to catch the fog over the river but also too early for our oldest two sons to join us.  Such a joy to watch these little ones roam around the dock looking at the fish, the ducks and the train that went overhead.  Children make memories anytime and anywhere.  Truly, they find joy in the simplest things and what a treat to watch them explore God’s creation.  So many things I pass by day to day but not these little ones.  They would explore all day if I allowed it.  Maybe the do explore all day anyway, right?  Following the docks we ventured to a local log cabin – a historic site in our hometown.    We were able to look through the windows at the log cabin and life size dollhouse next to the cabin.  No one wanted to leave.  I learn each day from these little ones – slow down, find joy wherever you can, meticulously explore God’s creation.  Our children are gracious teachers.  Laughter, smiles and fun galore – a generous visit to say the least.

Copyright © 2021 · Babiekins Magazine | A Trendsetting Kids' Fashion Magazine and Online Community for Parents and Children Alike · Since the Southern California birth of Babiekins in 2010, the magazine has grown from into an internationally-recognized print publication with a global circulation and now a thriving online community. We are more than a kids’ fashion magazine. We search everywhere for inspiration, and go beyond trends to bring you fashion, style, decor, design, books, DIY, parties, and playthings. Our readers look to us to keep up with the best and most up-to-date concepts in the children’s market worldwide. We have an eye for quirk. We’re high-fashion, but we value whimsy over tradition. Playful childhood is more important to us than making kids into copycat adults. We believe life is beautiful, life is valuable, and life changes when you see it through the eyes of a child. We seek to transcend skin color, language and zip codes and bring out the real, wild, magical creativity inherent in every child. And behind Babiekins is an optimistic team of mothers-turned-editors, working from home, often with our own little babiekins climbing on, under and around the desks. We want to encourage you, and challenge you to see something different — something special — in yourself and in this world we all share. Welcome to Babiekins!
