"Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened."~Dr. Seuss
I’ve seen how disruptive it can be for parents to have specific dreams for their children. My job is to help my kids foster a joy for life and develop the tools to fulfill their own wishes. My wishes for them are very exact and, given that I won’t be there, I want to be clear: Kids, don’t try to figure out what I wanted you to become. I want you to become what you want to become. And I want you to feel as if I am there with you, whatever path you choose. ~Randy Pausch
Real, natural learning is in the living. It's in the observing, the questioning, the examining, the pondering, the analyzing, the watching, the reading, the DO-ing, the living, the breathing, the loving, the JOY. It's in the joy. ~Anne Ohman
Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind. ~Dr. Seuss

Somehow the first flowers in the spring are just a tad more beautiful.
Pretty. @Mariby...It's because after a bleak winter, we are desparate for some color.
I envy you. I've been pruning and weeding books and periodicals - not so lovely.
I love these roses because they remind me of Mom. =)
When we lived in Jersey, the two of us planted the most amazing tea rose garden. When I gave birth to Renee, I will never forget her bringing me the most beautiful arrangement I had ever seen in my life. She went out back and cut them from our garden and chucked them in a vase!
Here in GA, we have been blessed (NOT!) with clay. Ugh. Tea roses do not thrive in that mess, so we had to jump on the 'easy to grow and maintain' variety bandwagon. Better that than nothing at all, ladies!
