All I Need to Know About Life I Learned From Trees
Author Unknown

It's important to have roots.

In today's complex world, it pays to branch out.

Don't pine away over old flames.

If you really believe in something, don't be afraid
to go out on a limb.

Be flexible so you don't break when a harsh wind blows.

Sometimes you have to shed your old bark in order
to grow.

If you want to maintain accurate records, keep
a log

Grow where you are planted.

It's perfectly okay to be a late bloomer.

Avoid people who would like to cut you down.

Get all spruced up when you have a hot date.

If the party gets boring or dangerous, just leaf.

You can't hide your true colors as you approach the
autumn of your life.

It's more important to be honest than poplar.

A Little Help From My Kids

So it is once again time to prepare for local craft fair and I want to take the time to say thank you to the ones who help out around the house so I can sew and be creative. First of all to my wonderful husband who tells me all the time, "You are just too busy." Thank you for letting me take on another project.

Thank You, "D" for helping with laundry.

Thank you "C" for helping Mommy take pictures.

Thank you "K" for helping prepare meals and cut out pieces.

"B" I am sorry you were not feeling well this weekend but Thank You for all the
time you help out too.
