Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writer, mystic, and father of four, David Spangler understands that the birth of a child is a spiritually significant event--a mystical experience. There is a feeling of magic in the parent/child relationship that relies on intuition, total presence, and impulses that come from the soul. The acclaimed author of The Call shares his stories from the trenches, blessings from the day-in and day-out of child-rearing, and encourages us, with grace, wit and common sense, toward the kind of parenting that brings to the world creative, honest, enlightened, and independent kids.
