Children grow up way too fast!!

If you have children, treasure the time with them.
They are only children once-- although there are some that never grow-up--or should I say mature?!? Spend time with them and make memories that will last a lifetime..let them enjoy themselves and have fun. They will grow up and have the rest of their lives to work and be responsible. Teach them good values and lead by example!!

Children have never been very good at listening to their elders, but they have never failed to imitate them.
James Arthur Bladwin

Children are not casual guests in our home. They have been loaned to us temporarily for the purpose of loving them and instilling a foundation of values on which their future lives will be built.
Dr. James C. Dobson

I am back!!

It has been weeks since I visited!! I guess I don't have a very exciting life!!
Yesterday was Father's Day so I went to visit my stepfather for a while--wonderful man!! He has always been very good to me and I am very lucky to have him in my life!!
My dad passed away when I was 8....when we left my Mom and Stepfather's house..we went to spend the day with friends...friends who have all lost their dad..it was a depressing day!! Men do not seem to handle losing their dads very well--or at least some of them don't!! Or it just gives them a reason to throw themselves a BIG pity party!! Anyways to all the dads out there--Hope you had a great father's day and that you will have many more to come!! Do not take a single moment for granted--it could be your last...!!
