Our children are so innocent The way they see reality ~ What they say is what is meant.. They don't play adult duality. So, "Out of the mouths of babes", The innocents will question... The way that grown-ups behave And why they have such tension. A child's life is not complex We should all be more at ease One lives life as one elects.. Heaven belongs to such as these. |

Yes, well said! The honesty of the innocent is something to treasure but I guess we train it out of our children for the sake of good manners. |

Nancy Children are wonderful, and it's good that so many are able to keep the child inside them alive, like you seem to. |

Bramisio!!!! children are more then people, they're our responsiblity...our blood line, our future, and we ought to leave this a better place, for them. I love their honesty...and have been reminded all over again, that innocence from my grand daughter. Lovely write! thank you! |

A child's innocence is just that, so innocent and pure, until someone lets the dogs out!!!! Love this Nancy, and the picture you posted to go with it. |

There is a soft and gentle innocence with small children. Good for you for reminding us and highlighting it with a neat picture. Hugs KJ Through rubble and trouble and dark of night |

Well said. What hurts is when their innocence is ruined by the adults who are so confused. I see it too often. This is a good reminder to let them have the opportunity to treasure the innocence. Sandra |
