Reflections on the Week

If we could see the miracle of a single flower clearly our whole life would change. ~ Buddha
(The beautiful quilt my mom made for Emma to hang in her room.)



To speak truly, few adult persons can see nature. Most persons do not see the sun. At least they have a very superficial seeing. The sun illuminates only the eye of the man, but shines into the eye and heart of the child. The lover of nature is he whose inward and outward senses are still truly adjusted to each other; who has retained the spirit of infancy even into the era of manhood. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson




A truly rich man is one whose children run into his arms when his hands are empty. ~Author Unknown



Children make you want to start life over. ~Muhammad Ali




Between the innocence of babyhood and the dignity of manhood, we find a delightful creature of a boy.
~ Author Unknown


The language of friendship is not words but meanings. ~Henry David Thoreau
