Well, it's not for a lack of caring, it's more that,w ell... trying to keep a record has been slighly difficult. I pray the Jumi forgives me if I have caused issue. *huffsigh* Else likely it could be very shy. Ahaha... that would be my luck, wouldn't it? Get the shyest one of the batch.
Well, least I think we get along musically since it doesn't seem to react negatively to my choices I have going when I'm here. Perhaps we will warm up to each pther more as time passes.
Tsch. Course, it would probably deifnitely help... if my last journal had not been doused inw ater and molded over somehow after being thrown somewhere. Makes me mad.
I've noticed no flaws, cracks, or anything dangerous to the core at least. That was my main concern and probably always will be. Hehe.
I do think it's a bit shy though - call it a hunch. Probably nothing huge to worry about though. I used to be shy. I'm sure I cna help the jumi get over it.

I've bene trying to make a point of being with the stone as much as thrice a day, although I can't say I always make it - partly due to obligations with, uh, stuff. I care not to delve too deeply into this, but once the core 'evolves' - whatever we wish to retermine calling it - they shall be introduced to the family and reasons.
Not all at once, but one by one. Blood family first of course - Alnilam and myself, and my half-sister as well.
I do wonde rsometimes my 'attraction' into fostering others... perhaps stemmed partly form my own lost youth, and my protective and sheltering nature. None shall suffer if I can help it - said then enough times in the past. Wasn't my life dedicated to easing pain and suffering once? Yes.
I suppose too, with the Jumi there is my natural resonance and attraction to gemstones and such -- but then too, there is the process of rebirth and beign raised and cared for. It seems to be a calling of a sort, I suppose.
Maybe a failing. I know true, that Amethyst is going to eb an interesting one to deal with, consideirn gosme of what I've contemplated on the stone and it's meaning. And purple is royalty - so I fret perhaps slightly that may play in. They say what one is, and what they are, do factor into some things...
Hopefully I will not have too much of a handful with this one. I suspect however, I shall have no such peace. Alnilam marks my first male child, and this stone the second.... hooboy. I can admit I am not entierly prepared for a male if this really is the case! Boys are so much mroe problematic.

With thought, I've realized some thigns, that I perhaps should have before in regards to Amethysts. Let's say a ltitle time with a book is a good thing, and perhaps insightful and prepatory.
Amethsyts are actually rpetty hard sontes - so perhaps I should be slightly less worried about damage to the core - or at least he should be hardy enough phsyically. Still very cautious with the core though. But knowing they're harder then average is good news.
Amethysts are also aprt of the larger Quartz family of gems, so maybe he'll be able to relate to some of the others easier... I can hope anyway!
In some cultures, Amethyst was said to ward against inebriation (not that I want him drinking!), warding against poison, dispelling sleep, protection against harm in battle (a protector indeed!), and sharpening the wits. Hoo boy... just what I needed - a battle of wits!
And oddly, the name fo the stone means 'not drunken' - heh! That was quite the amusing lesson indeed. Maybe I'll get lucky on that accord when he gets older.
There was a bit more, but I didn't get to reading it yet. But it's more about it's properties in other ways.
