If it’s sunny be sure to wear a hat!
I shall be at the local community allotment, hanging out with friends!
A lesson for us all, at any age!
Remember. A bad mood is never an excuse to use cruel words. Never. Moods pass, but cruel words wound the soul. Just sayin’ unknown
Wouldn’t you just love to meet this lady, and aspire to be just like her in the future!
Here is a list that Jazz Age novelist F. Scott Fitzgerald sent his 11-year old daughter Scottie in 1933 of things to and not to worry about. She was the only child of Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald.
Why do you think “What may have been?”
when plainly it was not?
Be happy with what’s done and seen,
give thanks for what you’ve got.
You’re richer far than many folk,
and healthier than a few.
Why try to fix what is not broke,
be thankful that you’re you!
Herbert the hippo was fat
there’s no denying of that
When bathing in mud
other animals should
beware when Herbert goes splat!
and here is a valuable lesson – source unknown
I was out walking with my 4½ year-old son.
He picked something off the ground and started to put it in his mouth. I took the item away from him and I asked him not to do that.
“Why?” my son asked.
“Because it’s been on the ground; you don’t know where it’s been, it’s dirty and probably has germs”, I replied.
At this point my son looked at me with total admiration and asked, “Mum, how do you know all this stuff? You are so smart.”
I was thinking quickly and replied, “All mums know this stuff. It’s on the Mum Test. You have to know it or they don’t let you be a Mum.”
We walked along in silence for 2 or 3 minutes and he was evidently pondering this new information.
“Oh….I get it!” he beamed. “So if you don’t pass the test you have to be the Dad.”
“Exactly.” I replied with a big smile on my face!
