so true...

"If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives.
Be kind anyway.
If you are honest, people may cheat you.
Be honest anyway.
The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough.
Give your best anyway.
For you see, in the end, it is between you and God.
It was never between you and them anyway."

~Mother Teresa

kids say the darndest things...

I just love how kids say exactly what is on their minds. Last night, I was snuggling with our little lady when she analyzes my face and sweetly states: "Mom, your face is spotted and mine is normal." {side note... those "spots" are freckles.} Though, I have to say that one didn't make me laugh nearly as hard as when we went jeans shopping for her some time ago. As she was pulling a pair up over her legs, she honestly and innocently said, "Mom, the tops of my legs are chunky, just like yours!" Oh my goodness... how can you not burst out into laughter?! But honestly, if such a comment can be sweet or endearing, it was. At 5 and 6, little girls adore their mommies, and she saw nothing wrong with it. It was an observation all her own, and she was just saying it as she saw it.:)

I guess we'll see what lines this little guy comes up with in the next few years... right now it's "ME TOO!" in response to anything and everything we say.

I simply adore these two.:)
