Reminded me of when I was a kid, I was in need of a good memory thanks for putting that up for us to read.

(big hugggssssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, I honestly cry every time I think of children as they are truly God's most beautiful creation and they truly can teach everyone just as much as we can teach them with the values of love and innocence! (wipes tears) I want to devote my life to helping children, and next week for a month I'm going to be the substitute teacher for young bi-lingual children in summer school! (don't worry, it's only in the early day so I'll have time for you and my Passions friends! ) (kiss on cheek) You bring the children of the world many smiles with yout angel eyes, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Linda, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Children! You captured their essence so beautifully. May we all now and then remember and draw from this source of innocence!
