I operate a group home daycare in Michigan.Before we moved to our new location 3 and a half years ago, I was printing out single sheets of paper each day to send home with kids' daily info.This was a hassel, especially when you consider the cost of ink and paper..and the inconvenience of running out!In addition, I learned that some of the parents were keeping each and every paper that I sent home as keepsakes!This journal is spiral bound and perfect.I have ordered one for each child that I've cared for in the past 3 1/2 years!I have no idea what the total number has been.I keep a pile of these books on the piano by the front door and make notes throughout the day.It goes back and forth in the child's backpack each day.I would highly recomend this journal.I researched several similiar ones before I began buying this one.This one is the best because it works well for any age.Some are designed only for infants..and some only for preschoolers.If there is anything that doesn't apply (like a bottle), I just write NA in that space.It's perfect.This book has made communication much more efficient!

SUPER book idea !!!
Fabulous!Ms. Marvin has designed a wonderful product to keep the lines of communication open between childcare provider and parent. Communication is so important when providing quality childcare!Each page has ample space to record the events of the child's day.What a great idea! This book also will serve as a special keepsake as the child grows older.

As a professional childcare resource and former childcare provider, I was very impressed with this book.This is a must have for every parent and childcare provider!! ... Read more

Book Description
"Medical Care of the the Soul" is for all of us who are facing death, or will someday die.We all will be there, but few of us admit it to ourselves.A doctor who constantly questions his own role in preserving life at any cost, Bruce Bartlow has written a pragmatic guide to making the full spectrum of end-of-life decisions.He stresses the importance of predetermining the quality of life we wish to hold onto in our last days, and of committing those determinations to writing (and includes a wealth of forms to be used for that purpose).His instructions include practical steps we can take to arrange the end of life, and what roles each participant can play, including a full integration of healthcare providers, families and patients.All come to an individual's death seeking their own healing, and all have the ability to heal themselves and the others.

In teaching us how to face death, "Medical Care of the Soul" is more a guidebook for living than for dying.By envisioning our own death from the soul's perspective, each of us can transform what remains of this life.We can choose to see the awareness of death not as a terrible loss, but as the last, loudest call to discover what we came here to do.The sooner we make this shift, the more time and clarity we will have to achieve our deepest goals and fill the last of life with loving resolution.

Bruce Bartlow has devoted years to care of the poor and neglected, not just in this country but in others.He is as much a humanist as a scientist and part of what makes this book remarkable is his ability to make empathic connections with patients and colleagues."Medical Care of the Soul" offers a structured approach to fulfilling the "soul" or deep essential healing needed at the end of life, bringing to our last days the same opportunities for depth and sacredness celebrated in the bestseller "Care of the Soul." ...
