Tip of the Day ~ Just a Chuckle

1:45 AM, Nov. 16, 2006

Today I thought I'd just leave you with something to chuckle about.  This made me giggle so I thought I'd pass it on.  Don't forget to give your little ones a hug today!!

"When I die, I want to die like my grandfather--who died peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming like all the passengers in his car."

Julie blogs at Raising Three Knights and a Princess and is the homeschooling mom of four kiddos!

Oh Julie ~ that is too funny. I've got to copy that down! How did I not know that you were doing this? I just thought you were taking a break on blogging. I must have missed the post where you said you were going to do this. This is great. Keep up the good work! How much longer are you doing this?
