Through the eyes of a child

After taking my camera away from Mitchell, I found this picture he took of himself.
Oh, I would love to see the world through those big brown eyes...



A child's eyes, those clear, wells of undefiled thought - what on earth can be more beautiful? Full of hope, love and curiosity, they meet your own. In prayer, how earnest; in joy, how sparkling; in sympathy, how tender! The man who never tried the companionship of a little child has carelessly passed by one of the great pleasures of life, as one passes a rare flower without plucking it or knowing its value

I LOVE that boy, and I LOVE that quote. How true it is and how LUCKY you are to be his mother. How LUCKY he is to have you as his mother. Good stuff. Thank you! :)

Wow, that's beautiful. How on earth do you know so many quotes? I'm always inspired by them, I wish I had all these in the back of my head.
