To repay all I've had from each girl and each boy.
I shall draw on the walls and scuff up the floor;
Run in and out without closing the door.
I'll hide frogs in the pantry, socks under my bed.
Whenever they scold me, I'll hang my head.
I'll run and I'll romp, always fritter away
The time to be spent doing chores every day.
I'll pester my children when they are on the phone.
As long as they're busy won't leave them alone.
Hide candy in closets, rocks in a drawer,
And never pick up my clothes from the floor.
Dash off to the movies and not wash a dish.
I'll plead for allowance whenever I wish.
I'll stuff up the plumbing and deluge the floor.
As soon as they've mopped it, I'll flood it some more.
When they correct me, I'll lie down and cry,
Kick and screaming, not a tear in my eye.
I'll take all their pencils and flashlights, and then
When they buy new ones, I'll take them again.
I'll spill glasses of milk to complete every meal,
Eat my banana and just drop the peel.
Put toys on the table, spill jam on the floor,
I'll break lots of dishes as though I were four.
What fun I shall have, what joy it will be, to
Live with my children...
The way they lived with me!
Their marriage was good, their dreams focused. Their best friends lived barely a wave away. I can see them now, Dad in trousers, tee shirt and a hat and Mom in a house dress, lawn mower in one hand, dish towel in the other.
It was a time for fixing things-a curtain rod, the kitchen radio, screen door, the oven door, the hem in a dress. Things we keep.
It was a way of life, and sometimes it made me crazy. All that re-fixing, reheating, renewing, I wanted just once to be wasteful. Waste meant afluence. Throwing things away meant there'd always be more.
But then my Mother died, and on that clear summer's night, in the warmth of the hospital room, I was struck with the pain of learning that sometimes there isn't any "more". Sometimes, what we care about most gets all used up and goes away...never to return.
So, while we have it, it's best we aove it, and care for it, and fix it when it's broken, and heal it when it's sick.
This is true . . . for marriages...and old cars...and children with bad report careds...and dogs with bad hips...and aging parents...and grandparents. We keep them because they are worth it, because we are worth it.
Some things we keep. . . Like best friends that move away...or...a classmate we grew up with. There are just some things that make life important, like people we know who are special
... and so, we keep them close!

It welcomes us back home and makes it easier to part.
A hug's a way to share the joy and sad times we go through.
Or just a way for friends to say they like you 'cause you're you.
Hugs are meant for anyone for whom we really care,
From your grandma to your neighbor, or a cuddly teddy bear.
A hug is an amazing thing - it's just the perfect way
To show the love we're feeling but can't find the words today.
It's funny how a little hug makes everyone feel good;
In every place and language, it's always understood.
And hugs don't need new equipment, special batteries or parts -
Just open up your arms and open up your heart.

This letter was started by a woman like yourself in hopes of bringing relief to other tired and discontented women. Unlike most chain letters, this one does not cost
When your name comes to the top of the list, you will receive 3,125 men . . . and some of them are bound to be better than the one you gave up!
DO NOT BREAK THIS CHAIN! One woman did and received her own husband back!
At this writing, a friend of mine had already received 184 men. They buried her yesterday, but it took three undertakers 36 hours to get the smile off her face.
We're counting on you!!!!!
