Quotes & Meanings

I chose Shel Silverstein's "Listen to the Mustn'ts" as my meaningful child quote:

"Listen to the Mustn'ts, child, listen to the don'ts
Listen to the Shouldn'ts, the Impossibles, the Won'ts,
Listen to the Never Haves, then listen close to me,
Anything can happen child, Anything can be."

I think back to the days my children were just little infants and we would have story time every night. I would use this poem as sort of a prayer for them as I tucked them in. It's my hope for not only my children, but all children that they can do whatever they put their mind to.
