I need help--for a fun one!
I'm finishing a birth sampler for my grandsons--Ollie, age 3 & Silas, 8 months. It's not a typical one with bunnies & teddy bears, but something called blackwork with designs, swirls & curlicues. It was fun to do & neat to look at.
I left space in the middle for some words of wisdom. I'm thinking along the lines of Be Yourself, Be Kind of Heart, Smile & laugh every day, Don't forget please & thank you. Just little tidbits that help make life a little better...
Any ideas? You guys are very kind of heart & I know you'll come up with some good ones. Thanks. P.

3. LOL or LOL ALOT
Reminding them to enjoy life and laugh out loud doesn't sound too bad.
Besides think how easy it will be to stitch only 3 or 7 letters instead of a whole phrase. :)

5. You're probably right.
They'll probably be texting more than they're reading!
