SHAME ON YOU, MR. OBAMA

Our promise to you, our faithful blog checkers, although we may not be timely with our posts... we, unlike our president, would never insult those with special needs... Rather arrogant, shameful and most un-presidential... wouldn't you agree?

"Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened."
~ Dr. Theodor Seuss Geisel (AKA Dr. Seuss)

"Dogs' lives are too short. Their only fault, really. "
~Agnes Sligh Turnbull

"A dog teaches a boy fidelity, perseverance, and to turn around three times before lying down. " ~Robert Benchley

"If you can look at a dog and not feel vicarious excitement and affection, you must be a cat. " ~Author Unknown

thoughts for easter

"The resurrection gives my life meaning and direction and the opportunity to start over no matter what my circumstances." ~Robert Flatt

"Easter says you can put truth in a grave, but it won't stay there." ~Clarence W. Hall

"The joyful news that He is risen does not change the contemporary world. Still before us lie work, discipline, sacrifice. But the fact of Easter gives us the spiritual power to do the work, accept the discipline, and make the sacrifice. " ~Henry Knox Sherrill

thoughts for st. patrick's day

"There are two kinds of people in the world. Those who are Irish and those who wish they were!"

"May God grant you always...
A sunbeam to warm you, A moonbeam to charm you, A sheltering angel, so nothing can harm you."

"May your thoughts be as glad as the shamrocks. May your heart be as light as a song. May each day bring you bright, happy hours, That stay with you all the year long."

"May joy and peace surround you. Contentment latch your door. And happiness be with you now and bless you evermore."

"May you live a long life full of gladness and health, with a pocket full of gold as the least of you wealth. May the dreams you hold dearest, be those which come true. May the kindness you spread, keep returning to you."

~Irish Blessings

thoughts for the week

2/20/08
The verses below were reportedly written on the wall of Mother Teresa's home for children in Calcutta, Indiam and are widely attributed to her. They seem to based on a composition originally written by Kent Keith.

"People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.

If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies. Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyway.

What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway.

The good you do today will often be forgotten. Do good anyway.

Give the best you have and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway.

In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway."

"We are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love. "~Author Unknown

Thoughts for Christmas

Thoughts for Father's Day

"Sherman made the terrible discovery that men make about their fathers sooner or later... that the man before him was not an aging father but a boy, a boy much like himself, a boy who grew up and had a child of his own and, as best he could, out of a sense of duty and, perhaps love, adopted a role called Being a Father so that his child would have something mythical and infinitely important: a Protector, who would keep a lid on all the chaotic and catastrophic possibilities of life." ~Tom Wolfe, The Bonfire of the Vanities

Finally Up and Running (my blog, not me)

Welcome to my blog! It took 6 months for my mommy to get it together, but we're finally up and running. Until I learn to type (have already mastered chewing & banging on the keyboard), I have added Webmaster to my mommy's list of duties... so we'll see how she does... Aunt Jacqui has set the standards pretty high! In order to get everyone up to speed, we've included a plethora of pictures, starting from my first moments to my 6 month birthday. From here on out, you can count on my blog for regular updates (both photos and thoughts), and for a thought provoking, socially responsible, and just plain cute site. Enjoy! (Most recent pics are at the top, scroll down to the bottom to start from birth.)
