Thoughts...

~Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of kissing, you still want to hold hands and be together and you talk and talk and talk some more. My Mommy and Daddy are like that. They look really gross when they kiss.~

~Childhood is a journey, not a race.~

What's in a moment? Cherish this moment...acknowledge this moment...own this moment;for this moment is your life...

We spend the first twelve months of our children's lives teaching them to walk and talk and the next twelve telling them to sit down and shut up.
Phyllis Diller


Cleaning your house while your kids are still growing up is like shoveling the walk before it stops snowing. ~Phyllis Diller

Children are contemptuous, haughty, irritable, envious, sneaky, selfish, lazy, flighty, timid, liars and hypocrites, quick to laugh and cry, extreme in expressing joy and sorrow, especially about trifles, they'll do anything to avoid pain but they enjoy inflicting it: little men already. ~Jean de La Bruyère, Les Caractères, 1688

Think what a better world it would be if we all - the whole world - had cookies and milk about three o’clock every afternoon and then lay down with our blankies for a nap. ~Robert Fulghum, All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten

"Children have neither past nor future; they enjoy the present, which very few of us do." ~Jean de la Bruy

What is that Sweet Sound; Could it Possibly Be...

What is that sound;
could is possibly be...
is a very curious line.
It's very late at night,
not a child in sight
it's a scary new height...how profound!
When the children are sleeping
all snug in their beds;
Sheer delight lights up the darkest of night.
Although we love them to pieces
there's no denying how
the sweetest sound really just might...
be the one of nothing, just night.
