Children

A child is a beam of sunlight from God...

A child is the root of the heart.

(Caroline Maria de Jesus)

~~~

A child's mind is a lot like gelatin,

it's better to fill it up with lots of good stuff

before it sets.

~~~

A hundred years from now

it will not matter

what my bank account was,

the sort of house I lived in,

or the kind of car I drove...

but the world may be different

because I was important in the life of a child.

~~~

A lock of hair from a child so fair,

A miracle from above placed gently in my care.

This child is growing up so fast.

Tomorrow is the future, today is the past,

walking...talking...fading riddles and rhymes,

This lock of hair remains a keepsake of past times.

~~~

Be kind to your children...they pick your nursing home.

Blessed are the children !

Catch them doing something "good"..!!

(we always catch our children doing something bad...so here's a switch !)

~~~

Childhood is that wonderful time

when all you have to do to lose weight

is to take a bath..!!

Children are a gift from God...

Children are God's flower buds just waiting to open.

Children are jewels dropped from heaven.

~~~

Children are natural mimics who act like their parents

despite every effort to teach them good manners.

Children are poor men's riches.

Children are the sweet peas in the garden of life !

~~~

Children do not ask to be born

but they do ask to be taken care of

and in so many ways.

Children don't make life easier....just better...

Children fill a hole in your heart you never knew existed.

Children have more need of models than of critics.

~~~

Children have never been very good at listening to their elders.

But they have never failed to imitate them.

~~~

Children in the dark cause accidents.

Accidents in the dark cause children.

Children love to learn....but hate to be taught.

~~~

Children may close their ears to advice,

but open their eyes to example.

~~~

Children need love, especially when they don't deserve it.

~~~

Children seldom misquote you.

In fact, they usually repeat

word for word

what you shouldn't have said.

~~~

Children should be seen, not heard.

Forget the dog. Beware of the kids...!!

~~~

Give a boy enough rope

and he'll bring home

a stray dog on the end of it.

I love to give homemade gifts.

Which one of the kids would you like?

~~~

If a child lives with approval...he learns to live with himself !

~~~

If children are the ones who take the baths,

why are moms the ones who get soaking wet?

~~~

If we are to reach real peace in this world

we shall have to begin with the children.

(Ghandi)

~~~

If you think it is impossible to love someone

more than yourself,

have a child.

If you want friends,

don't ever tell them

what is wrong with their children.

I'm spoiled....but not rotten !!

In the eyes of a child,

love is spelled T-I-M-E

It is said that every child is a little flower.

What if he is a little cactus?

It's not an empty nest until their stuff is out of the attic.

~~~

It's not who wears the pants in the family who's the boss,

it's who wears the diapers.

~~~

Kid's brain are like jello...

lots of good stuff before they set.

Monday's child is fair of face,

Tuesday's child is full of grace,

Wednesday's child is full of woe,

Thursday's child has far to go,

Friday's child is loving and giving,

Saturday's child works hard for a living,

The child that is born on the Sabbath Day,

is bonny, blythe, good and gay.

Often God's biggest gift

to us come in the littlest of packages...

Saying " yes " to a child

is like blowing a balloon.

You have to know when to stop.

Sending children to college is educational for parents.

It teaches them to do without many things.

Spare the rod, spoil the child.

~~~

The decision to have a child, it's momentous.

It is to decide forever to let your heart

walk around outside of your body.

The good thing about spoiled children

is that you never have any in your family.

~~~

There are two things a child will share willingly.

Chickenpox and his mother's age.

~~~

There are two things we should give our children...

one is roots...the other is wings.

~~~

Thou shalt not whine...

~~~

To be in your children's memories tomorrow...

You have to be in their lives today.

To the world...you may be one person,

but to one person...you may be the world !

We can handle any problem...we have kids !!

~~~

We know a secret
Just we three.
The Robin, and I and the
sweet Cherry tree.
The bird told the tree
and the tree told me
And nobody knows it
But just we three !

~~~

We teach children to love by first loving them.

~~~

What should not be heard by little ears,

should not be said by big mouths.

~~~

When God made the motor for toddlers,

there's one thing He forgot, I fear...

Often the throttle gets stuck on high,

for He forgot to include low gear.

Why does everyone think that I am a cruel and

insensitive man? I mean, come on, I have kids.....

on my desk in little jars !
