Parents are to teach their kids to love instead of hate others. As a parent, we are responsible for teaching our children that love is unconditional regardless of the color of one's skin or nationality. Through the Eyes of a Child, a child sees no difference in the child they sit next to on the bus, in their classroom, or that child they play with on the playground. Instead, a child sees another child as themselves. Love is a strong affection for another arising out of kinship, personal ties, or maternal love for a child. It has always baffled me how someone can carry a child for nine months inside the womb and one day decide to abandon that child. It baffles me how a father can bring a child into this world and leave it as if it never existed. How a father can love his mother but not love his children. How can a father say "I love you" to others that they're romantically attached to but have never told their child that they love them? Sheila Ehler is a wife and mother of four adult children. Sheila currently resides in Brookhaven, Ga. She is a Real Estate Agent with Solid Source Realty, artist, writer, fashion designer and works as a model from time to time. Sheila's first book, Through the Eyes of a Child will launch before spring, 2023. Contact us at www.paprovipublishing.com and let us help you take your story from a "thought to a realization!"

Let’s face it, losses and defeats are not something we celebrate. Although growing up, we were taught that sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. But as we grow and mature in life, these defeats become harder and harder to deal with. This book is written to help you get your bounce back, because you’re still here and you have purpose that has yet to be fulfilled. Just because you suffered defeat in areas of your life, does not classify you as a failure or defeated. You are only defeated if you fail to get back up and try again. When you get back up, square your shoulders, and look that thing in the eye determining that you refuse to be defined by it, you have moxie. Moxie is that persistence and audacity to push past everything that attempted to box you in and weigh you down. You were not built to quit nor concede. You’re going to get your fight back and you’re going to win BIG! It’s time to celebrate! https://www.amazon.com/Your-Fight-Back-After-Defeat-ebook/dp/B0BQ4KGQBY/ref=sr_1_1?crid=19Q4TL25ENCBB&keywords=how+to+get+your+fight+back+after+defeat&qid=1671196759&sprefix=how+to+get+your+fight+back+after+defeat%2Caps%2C129&sr=8-1 Let us Pa-Pro-Vi help you take your story from a "thought to a realization!" www.paprovipublishing.com
This healing guidebook is written for the mothers of all the un-named or unborn babies of the Universe. We did not know how to love and care for them. That is the only reason they are not among the living. We were scared, shamed, silly, forced into the action, or too immature to stand up for them. We had ‘no voice’, yet we stand today to give voice to them. The book is meant to bring some reconciliation or closure to the pain that still exists for all involved: To heal the past; the present and future generations. In it, Dr. Rodgers explores the connection between abandonment, addiction, and abortion. She offers help to understand the how and the why; to honor all of life; to expose the lies we have believed, and our attempts to live up to the lies.
