“Everybody today seems to be in such a terrible rush, anxious for greater developments and greater riches and so on, so that children have very little time for their parents. Parents have very little time for each other, and in the home begins the disruption of peace of the world.” – Mother Teresa
It takes a lot of willing
to live an honest life;
It takes a lot of courage
to meet the stress and strife;
It takes a lot of effort
to make the wrong come right;
It takes a lot of patience and faith
to build a happy life!

The girl replied, “I’m drawing God.” The teacher paused and said, “But no one knows what God looks like.”
Without looking up from her drawing, the girl replied, “They will in a minute.”

Hugs are an expression of love without words – they can take the hurt out of a child’s scraped knee, soothe a troubled soul, comfort the grieving heart and put a smile on the face of almost any person who gives and receives one.
Hugs speaks for themselves, saying “I care, I accept you, I’m here for you, I’ve missed you, I like to be with you. Some researchers have concluded that children need as many hugs a day as they need glasses of milk. So, give and receive more hugs today.
“You can’t wrap love in a box, but you can wrap a person in a hug.” unknown author

Mother : Of course, dear.
Little Suzie: Then what are the others here for?
