Quotable Sunday - #2



Toni at A Daily Dose of Toni hosts Quotable Sunday each Sunday. I decided to do quotes about kids today.

You can learn many things from children. How much patience you have, for instance.
~Franklin P. Jones

The best way to keep children home is to make the home atmosphere pleasant -- and let the air out of the tires.
~Dorothy Parker

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

Cleaning your house while your kids are still growing up is like shoveling the walk before it stops snowing.
~Phyllis Diller

Phyllis Diller is so right! I clean and clean and never get anywhere, especially picking up toys. To think it is going to get worse when my youngest starts walking!
