Amen! The best investment we can make! ππππ»π
Thanks
Youβre so welcome!
Yes!!! π
I knew you would like that one, Jennie.
I thought of Jennie as I wrote it.
Jennie is at the top of the investment world when it comes to children.
π₯°
Aww…π₯°
Oh, yes!
So true!!
It really is!
Yes!
β€
Thanks Beth
Very true! Great quote.
Best wishes, Pete.
Thank you Pete.
Thank you, Pete.
And thanks to our investment in our five sons our future and our past is so much brighter than we could have imagined.
How wonderful to hear Don
Hooray!!! I’m so glad to hear that, Don.
And it can only benefit their futures and those of their children. (I’ve read of so many bad parents lately letting down their offspring and they grow up damaged and without direction.) Fortunately, there are plenty of good parents too, but while the police force and child care authorities do some good work, too many miscreants slip through the net. Some of the sad, tragic cases emerging are heart-breaking.
Sadly that is true Joy. But I believe goodness will outβ¦
Those stories are always so sad. Yes, if we can give children a good beginning (easy to do), then we have eliminated many of the problems we see in adults.
True words of Wisdom.
Thank you.
Welcome
Indeed!
Yes.
Society, especially America, needs to get this π
It is such a simple concept I do not understand why people don’t investβ¦
Yes!
Absolutely!
Thanks Liz.
You’re welcome.
π
Agreed.. May we truly appreciate our children and what we have put them through this last couple of years.. And thank Godness Jennie for teachers like you who really DO care about them future.. β€ Thank YOU.
Sending love.. β€
Thank you, Sue. You are so right. π
They are our most precious gift to the future.
Very well said. Must for future of any countryβ
Thank you very much.
Yes! So obvious and perfectly stated.
π
Sometimes the simplest things are the hardest to see.
Well said
Absolutely!
Thanks!
Definitely!
Thank you!
Absolutely! π Couldn’t agree more! That’s where it all starts!
Thanks for the comment!
Hear, hear!
A great quote, and Jennie you are the best broker! :-)) Enjoy a wonderful Sunday! Best wishes, Michael
Thanks so much, Michael! Happy Sunday to you.
