The Promise

Hope springs eternal in the human breast:

Man never is, but always To be Blest.

Alexander Pope

While there's life, there's hope.

Cicero

The sun does not shine for a few trees and flowers,

but for the wide world's joy.
Henry Ward Beecher

Keep your face to the sunshine

and you cannot see the shadow.

It's what sunflowers do.
Helen Keller

In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me,

an invincible summer.

Albert Camus

Still Life?

The Y's

"Mmmmm. The tire smells good!"

"Mom, you should eat only carrots. Then you'll be skinny like me."

The Y's will:

1. Lift butt cheek up to expel gas
2. Not hear you calling
3. Zone in front of a television
4. Recite from commercials and movies but be unable to recall what you just said
5. Prefer to wait in the car than go in the craft store with you
