     Thanks, Scott, and I’m glad you do! There’s so much to worry about in life, it’s a relief to put the “silly hat” on whenever we can!

   Love it, Lauren! Too much seriousness, not enough silly fun sometimes. Just to balance the scales a bit

      I’m happy you do allow “silly” to enter your life, occasionally, Sis, and thank you so much! My son took the photo and that is my daughter’s life motto. I’m glad I thought to put the two together, ‘cuz I love it, too! xoxo

    Gotta love these timely wise words!!! When exactly did we lose that other side of us? Adulthood is so overrated, LOL Lighten up, be silly, play, have fun … life happens (however we allow/choose it to) Great poem Lauren!

    “Part of her make-up is smile”–I like that! Here, there is a belief that a smiling face hardly gathers wrinkles. You daughter will live long. And thank you for a fabulous poem.
