Great article and that second picture is gorgeous. :D

Over the years I took a lot of flack from friends and well meaning acquaintances, that thought I should always let my kids and theirs win when we played games but I told them all, that isn't going to help them deal with the failures that will come as they go through life. They need to learn to deal with the occasional disappointment and feelings that come with failure so that they can truly appreciate the joys of that success when it comes.

Thanks for posting. :D
