The ungodly Hour

Gage, Ethan, and Ady,
You guys are too young to know the meaning of death! With life comes death. There will be people in your life that you will have to say goodbye to. Wether that person is a girlfriend, boyfriend, spouse, mom, dad, grandma, grandpa, or even a close or distant friend! Just remember, the love you have for them...........the love will always be in your heart! The memories will dwell in your mind forever! Life and death go hand-in-hand.....one can not be separated from the other.

Well Hello,

The Making Of An American Quilt

This is one of my favorite movies! There is just a good motto about this movie! Remember kids to choose your quilt wisely! Remember to make sure that it has all  of the colors you dream it to have. Make sure all of it's corners are shaped the way you want them shaped! Remember that the quilt will need mending and washing at times! Remember that the quilt will loose some of it's color and flare if not taken care of correctly! Remember that if you give your quilt love, you will get love in return, if you mend it, it will stay strong, if you forget about it, it will soon forget about you! Don't tuck your quilt in a closet or a chest, hold it close to you always .........I'm sure when you get older you will know that I am talking about your life and the life you have chosen with a loved one! Right now, these things seem so far away, but.............You are actually making your quilt at this very moment! I love you  Gage, Ethan, and Ady!

FoOTPRINTS IN THE SAND

This is one of my favorite poems about God and all that he carries us through! You will understand it more when you are older! Just remember, I will be there for you also, through good times and in bad! Always remember to keep your strength and free spirit that God gave you and use it wisely my dear!  Yet, remember to calm it when the time comes! I'll be watching you and I'll always be on your side as long as I am Alive!

BE THAT SMALL CHILD AGAIN!

It's finally raining outside! Remember when you were a small child and one of your favorite things to do was to play in the rain, then  slip-n-slide in the mud puddles? Well, that was one of my favorite things to do! As adults, we should all remember to do some of the things we liked doing as a child! So, go outside today and play in the rain, slide into a big mud puddle, ride a bike, play hide-n-seek with your children, play cops and robbers with your kids, watch a good cowboy and indian movie( I bet some of your kids don't know what that is)! It's ok to be a kid for a day and forget about all of that adult stuff! Take the weight of the world off of your shoulder, take the edge off.............feel free, get wet, get muddy, ride that horse with that cowboy!!!!!!!!

ETHAN

ETHAN ALWAYS THINKS THAT THE BIGGER AND THE SILLIER THE SMILE= A BETTER PICTURE! HE'S SUCH A FUNNY LITTLE DUDE!

My Big Brother

HE'S MY BIG BROTHER.....THE ONE WHO'S GONNA KEEP ME SAFE AND BEAT UP ALL OF MY MEAN BOYFRIENDS! HE'S GONNA BRING ME FISHING AND TEACH ME HOW TO HUNT TOO! LOOK OUT WORLD, HERE WE COME!

YES, WE ALREADY KNOW YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!

YES, WE ALREADY KNOW THAT YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL, BUT THE QUESTION IS....DO YOU? I'LL MAKE SURE TO TELL YOU THAT YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL EVERYDAY, BUT YOUR JOB IS TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL INSIDE TOO!

GAGE MICHAEL LEGENDRE

LOVE EACH OTHER

BROTHERS AND SISTERS ALWAYS FIGHT, BUT THEY ALWAYS HAVE THAT SPECIAL BOND.....REMEMBER TO ALWAYS BE KIND AND LOVE EACH OTHER! IN THIS WORLD OF OURS, WE ALL NEED FAMILY!  REMEMBER THAT EACH OF YOU ARE UNIQUE IN YOUR OWN LITTLE WAY....

Sisters

Sisters....the one you played and fought  with when you were young, the one you grow into a teenager with, the one who knows about all of your flaws and doesn't mind reminding you of them, the one who was there at your wedding and saw you walk down the isle, the one who was there for your son's birth, the one who lives across the street, the one who drinks a couple of beers with you! Yes, that's my sister! 

RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN!

Run as fast as you can little one! Catch those bubbles! Reach high!

Youth!

Did you ever wonder how it would be to stay young forever....to be forever 21? Actually, that would be insane! Imagine the hormone rush in the world.......Imagine being 13 again, with acne all over your face and hair growing everywhere....yuck! Imagine 8 again, loosing all of your teeth and gaining those big ones in that little mouth of yours! Imagine being one again, trying to walk for the first time! Imagine being a baby, being cradled in someone's arms...........no matter how old you are, you can still cuddle in someone's arms and think back to being forever 21, 13,8,1, or even a baby! It's fun to imagine!

Awe-struck!

GOOD IF YOU CAN STILL HAVE THAT AWE-STRUCK-FEELING INSIDE! THAT FEELING THAT JUST CAPTIVATES THE MIND AND KEEPS YOU IN THAT MOMENT FOR AWHILE!

YOU ARE A HANDSOME DEVIL!

YOU ARE SO CUTE! ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT YOU ARE HANDSOME! KEEP YOUR HEAD HELD HIGH AND BE PROUD OF WHO YOU ARE!

SMILE

SMILE UNTIL YOUR HEART IS CONTENT! AND WHEN YOU'RE FEELING SAD....SMILE ANYWAY! SMILING SENDS POSITIVE ENERGY TO THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU!

SHARE YOUR ICECREAM

DON'T FORGET TO SHARE YOUR ICE CREAM LITTLE ONE! I KNOW IT TASTE SOOOOO GOOD, BUT WHENEVER YOU GAIN SOMETHING, YOU SHOULD PAY IT FORWARD! YES, THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A COLD ICE CREAM MELTING IN YOUR HANDS AND MOUTH ON A HOT SUMMERS DAY.......SHARE THAT WITH SOMEONE WHO CAN'T AFFORD THE FINER THINGS IN LIFE!

Fairytales

Remember that it is ok to dream of fairytales..........But, life is not always the "fairytale"! Life has it's many ups and downs and roller coaster rides! Dream big and think big, but be prepared for smaller outcomes sometimes!

SILLY

BEING SILLY IS SO MUCH FUN! DON'T FORGET TO LOOSE YOURSELF EVERY-NOW-AND-THEN AND ACT SILLY! SILLY IS GOOD FOR THE SOUL! 

CLIMB HIGH

CLIMB HIGH ETHAN! WHEN YOU REACH THE TOP, DON'T FORGET TO LOOK DOWN AT THE BEAUTIFUL VIEW! BUT, ALWAYS, ......ALWAYS REMEMBER, DON'T LOOK DOWN ON PEOPLE, LEARN FROM THEM!

TO BE FOREVER 2!

TO BE FOREVER TWO! TO HAVE THAT WONDER IN YOUR EYES, THE NEED, THE WANT TO EXPLORE ALL THE BIG THINGS AROUND YOU! TO HAVE THAT DRIVE TO STAY AWAKE AS LONG AS YOU CAN, TO HAVE THE URGE TO TOUCH AND TASTE EVERYTHING......STAY  TWO IN YOUR HEART FOREVER ADY! TWO IS A WONDERFUL AGE!

GAGE

LIKE THE SONG SAYS: " I HOPE YOU NEVER LOOSE YOUR SENSE OF WONDER!

BE COOL!

DON'T FORGET TO BE COOL..........WEAR YOUR SHADES BECAUSE THE FUTURE IS SO BRIGHT! PUT A SMILE ON YOUR FACE BECAUSE LIFE IS WONDERFUL!
