Dear Sam

don't grow too old for forts,
or stories,
or for trying and being friends
with your exquisite wild things.

 don't.

    :). A gem, Kenia.

    I have two teen boys. They likely would swap vowels in that last word of the first line, then laugh uproariously. ~

  3. To grow old .. inevitable.. to stay young at heart a worthy effort.

  4. I love this sentiment, but no matter how we ask and try to fight time they do get older. Each stage adds a new and exciting dimension to life! I had to laugh at grapeling's comment - with all boys in my house, they might do the same!
