    OC JR. LEAGUE!!
    BABY CRACK RIBS, TAYLOR SWIFLI,  
    LOVEETA LOCA & CREW!!

    Your Children are not Your Children
    They are the sons and daughters 
    of life's longing for itself.
    They come through you but not from you,
    And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.

    You may give them your love but not your thoughts,

    For they have their own thoughts.
    You may house their bodies but not their souls,
    For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, 
    which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.

    You may strive to be like them, 
    but seek not to make them like you. 
    For life goes not backward 
    nor tarries with yesterday.
    ~Khalil Gibran
    I would have girls regard themselves 
    not as adjectives but as nouns.  
    ~Elizabeth Cady Stanton
    We've begun to raise daughters more like sons... 
    but few have the courage to raise our sons 
    more like our daughters.  ~Gloria Steinem


    All that spirits desire, spirits attain.
    ~Khalil Gibran 


    My philosophy is that 
    not only are you responsible for your life, 
    but doing the best at this moment 
    puts you in the best place for the next moment. 
    ~Oprah Winfrey

    Praise youth and it will prosper.
    ~Irish Proverb



    Your children need your presence 
    more than your presents.  
    ~Jesse Jackson



    Young people are in a condition like 
    permanent intoxication, 
    because youth is sweet 
    and they are growing.
    ~Aristotle

    I believe in pink. 
    I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. 
    I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. 
    I believe in being strong when 
    everything seems to be going wrong.
    I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. 
    I believe that tomorrow is another day 
    and I believe in miracles. ~Audrey Hepburn

    My advice to the women's clubs of America 
    is to raise more hell and fewer dahlias.

    I use to love to roller skate and I was an avid fan of the roller derbies when I was a kid. Maybe I'll go pick up my grand kids and teach them how to go through life on wheels! Thanks for the inspiration.
