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.

Irrational Fear

I always am fearful for my boys - of the world we live in.

After kids brought a homemade "exploding device" to school last year I get scared for Nic at school. Their are drugs, bombing, bullying and now boys kissing boys... What happened to no PDA in school? Why can't kids just be kids? Why can't he just be worried about grades and making the wrestling team? Why does he have to see boys kissing boys in the hallways?

I know this is contravercial for some but I really have to say that an online High School is looking better and better!

The real World is out there just waiting to absorb our kids and show all the worlds differences. But, why can't our kids stay kids for a little longer before the world shows it's ugly head!

Doesn't sound fun and I'm not looking forward to it. I've never been a fan of PDA at school no matter who it is.
