Don't forget to stop and enjoy the play!!

"Play isn't something separate from the daily grind of life.  It is not something to finally get to when work ends.  Rather, play like music, is a force that we feel in our bones and that whispers in our hearts. As kids demonstrate play is not over there, but forever here and now."

-Vince Gowmon

 

"It's okay to be absurd, ridiculous and downright irrational at times, silliness is the sweet syrup that helps us swallow the bitter pills of life." - Richelle E. Goodrich
