It's hard to give all day long, and then go home to the one(s) you actually want to give the most to feeling completely drained. It's hard for me to accept the realization that I may not actually be able to save the whole world. But I rest a little bit easier knowing that I am changing the world one child at a time. <BR/><BR/>I hope that you and Lucy have a fantastic weekend. Love on that little girl like there's no tomorrow! And don't feel bad taking a little time for yourself too!jaymehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09090979914568630927noreply@blogger.com
