     The picture of the flowers below is a link to a children's story I (Cyndi) wrote some time ago called "Arietta's Secret Wish."  It is an allegory of my struggle with illness and self acceptance.  

Arietta is a crystal vase who lives in a little cottage in the woods.  She becomes disillusioned with the way the Master Craftsman has made her.  Arietta decides to try to become a stew pot, with disastrous consequences but a happy ending.  Although it's a children's story, it’s secretly for adults, too, or anyone who feels different. 

     You can print the pages on a color printer, cut them in half; then staple or bind them together into a little booklet.  You are welcome to save the file onto your computer, e-mail or share this little book with anyone, however you like, as often as you like.  God gave it to me, and I'm freely giving it to anyone who wants it.

 With love,

Because we are a bit "kid-challenged," we have asked the owner of RocksInMyDyer.net if we could use her link for Internet resources for children.  Hope you find it helpful!  Note:  there are no guarantees on the Wild Wild Web, so always supervise your child when he or she is on the computer!
