(This was in a little local newspaper, I thought it was cute, passing it on to you!)
"GREAT TRUTHS LITTLE CHILDREN HAVE LEARNED"
1) No matter how hard you try, you can't baptize cats.
2) When Mom is made at Dad, don't let her brush your hair.
3) If your sister hits you, don't hit her back. They always catch the 2nd person.
4) Never ask your 3-year old brother to hold a tomato.
5) You can't trust dogs to watch your food.
6) Don't sneeze when someone is cutting your hair.
7) Never hold a Dust-Buster and a cat at the same time.
8) You can't hide a piece of broccoli in a glass of milk.
9) Don't wear polka-dot underwear under white shorts.
10) The best place to be when you're sad is in Grandma's lap.
" GREAT TRUTHS THAT ADULTS HAVE LEARNED"
1) Raising teenagers is like nailing jelly to a tree.
2) Wrinkles don't hurt.
3) Families are like fudge...mostly sweet, with a few nuts.
4) Today's mighty oak is just yesterday's nut that held it's ground.
5) Laughing is good exercise. It's like jogging on the inside.
6) Middle age is when you choose your cereal for the fiber, not the toy.
" THE FOUR STAGES OF LIFE"
1) You believe in Santa Claus.
2) You don't believe in Santa Claus.
3) You are Santa Claus
4) You look like Santa Claus.
1) You believe in Santa Claus.
2) You don't believe in Santa Claus.
3) You are Santa Claus
4) You look like Santa Claus.

I love what you have posted..and your back writing's have really touched my heart. We might not be the same religion..but we are Sisters in Christ in our hearts and our love for him. I just wanted to say Hello.
Stop by and visit my little neighborhood sometime.

they are all just adorable....here is to not piddling in our pants and letting our husbands be the ones who look like santa claus!!!!
by the way, you really can mail stuff in a two liter bottle.....for real. you just cut a flap in the middle, fill it up, tape it shut and cover it with cute paper and a mailing label....
Loved this! Have a great week!
What a fabulous post!!! I will share, thanks!
Very very cute. Should I be worrying that I'm only 52 and success is not piddling in my pants?

These are wonderful. And so very true. But that poor cat! Kathy
Hilarious, Julie! My girls were reading them with me, and we were laughing so hard! I think I especially loved the raising teenagers is like "nailing jelly to a tree"! Was laughing so hard I cried!

Julie, thanks for the giggle. I have seen these before, but it is always nice to read them again. This is the type of thing that brings a smile to the face no matter what!! You are a real treasure! XXOO
That is so good Julie! My Dad really did look like Santa before he passed. Do you think that means I will too? Oh dear. And another truth is don't let your 3 year old sister hold your hamster while she is watching cartoons. My son Josh found out about that the hard way.
Hugs,
Cindy
