Jones Children need love, especially when they do not deserve it.  ~Harold Hulbert Children seldom misquote.  In fact, they usually repeat word for word what you shouldn't have said.  ~Author Unknown While we try to teach our children all about life, Our children teach us what life is all about. ~Angela Schwindt Creative play is like a spring that bubbles up from deep within a child.  ~Joan Almon Women gather together to wear silly hats, eat dainty food, and forget how unresponsive their husbands are.  Men gather to talk sports, eat heavy food, and forget how demanding their wives are.  Only where children gather is there any real chance of fun.  ~Mignon McLaughlin, The Neurotic's Notebook, 1960 Cleaning your house while your kids are still growing up is like shoveling the walk before it stops snowing.  ~Phyllis Diller Children need the freedom and time to play.  Play is not a luxury.  Play is a necessity.  ~Kay Redfield Jamison It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men.  ~Frederick Douglass
