Roots and Wings




"We can bequeath our children only two things of lasting value: One of them is roots. The other, wings." Hodding Carter.

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you. You have blessed me more than you know.

You're a blessing to us as well. Happy Tanksgiving!

I love these photos of your kids! Yes, give them rots to grow and wings to fly... you're blessed to have them.

I love this quote (although I don't know who Hodding Carter is - but I do have the internet at my fingertips - some might say don't be so lazy - google him/her - okay, okay - I will!).
To me, these words speak the absolute truth. I don't have any kids but having been a kid once myself, I thank god my parents gave me these gifts.

Your children tug at my heartstrings something fierce.

A perfect quote, so much truth in so few words.

Your children make me say awwwwww. They put a smile on my face just to see those sweet grins.
And YOU m'deah, are a blessing to me.
You have no idea how glad I am that I have you to visit and how much you lift my spirits.

You are the best!

Hugs,
Sue
