Little Hearts
Our Wednesday Wisdom comes from A.A. Milne, the author of the Winnie the Pooh books. He has a simple, beautiful way of expressing the deepest thoughts.
Children approach each day with wonder and amazement. I can’t think of a better way to express gratitude for this awe-inspiring world in which we live. Their glowing smiles show their appreciation for even the smallest of kindnesses.
This mom is deeply grateful to have been the guardian of little hearts that have grown into big hearts. Although they are grown men, they will always be ‘my boys.’
