Here's to maintaining some self-respect and sanity while tending to the growth and maturation of young minds, including your own young mind. Here's to recognizing that it isn't necessary to know how everything is going to turn out in advance, and that often Life has much better in store than one can imagine. Here's to hope and happiness even when Life gets complicated, especially then... That's when it's needed it most.

...afterall, the car may only seat seven but room for friends is unlimited...

Look Look Look at these sweet babies. What a Masterful Creator!

These photos and quotes came to me this morning in an email. I'm not one to forward emails, but I enjoyed these so much I thought I'd post them to my blog so that my friends could see them. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.


'Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.'



If you lack the courage to start, you have already finished.













If you want your dreams to come true, you mustn't oversleep.



Of all the things you wear, your expression is the most important.



The best vitamin for making friends..... B1.





The happiness of your life depends on the quality of your thoughts.




The heaviest thing you can carry is a grudge.




One thing you can give and still keep...is your word.







Ideas won't work unless ' You' do.







The 10 commandments are not a multiple choice. 






You lie the loudest when you lie to yourself.





Friends are like angels, who lift us to our feet
when our wings have trouble remembering
how to fly.









The pursuit of happiness is the chase of a lifetime! It is never too late to become what you might have been.
Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right.. Forget about the one's who don't. Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.

Two cute quotes.

I have a Mac computer. It has a Dashboard. There a widgets that can be added to the Dashboard. One of my favorites is "Today's fortune." These are two fortunes from the last 24 hours. They made me laugh which is the best reason I can think of for sharing them.

Living your life is a task so difficult, it has never been attempted before.

love, n.: When you think of someone on days that begin with a morning.
