A BOY IS

TRUTH with dirt on his face,

BEAUTY with a cut on his finger,

WISDOM with bubble gum in his hair,

and theHOPE of the future with a
frog in his pocket.

LITTLE GIRLS

Little girls are made of daisies and butterflies and soft kitty cat purrs

And all the precious memories of times that once were.

Little girls are made of angel's wings and giggles and a firefly's glow

And all the happy feelings, deep inside, that we all know.

Little girls are made of cinnamon and bubbles and fancy white pearls

And snowflakes and rainbows and ballerina twirls.

Little girls are made of sunshine and cupcakes and fresh morning dew,

And these are the reasons, little one, why everyone loves you.

Growing Up...

Sometimes it sneaks up and surprises me.

My Nic is growing up into quite a young man.

Last night he led FHE. He started with assigning tasks. He led the song - and as we only have 1 book he conducted and sung all by himself, he had me say opening prayer and we went through this weeks schedule. Then he gave a lesson he put together from reading For the Strength of Youth. Then came closing prayer and song.

His maturity and wisdom in the lesson made me so proud of him! What a great example he was for his brother and for me.

Wow, I'm impressed!!! He is definitely maturing. Can you believe you are going to have a high schooler soon?
