"For today it is sunny."

A few petals on a delicate flower gently raise themselves up.   Ever so subtle, ever so eloquent.  To remain flat is not an option.  They continue to push themselves beyond their comfort.  Lifting higher than they ever have been or may ever be again; for tomorrow it may rain and the drops will make their petals heavy but today... it is sunny.

"Do not sit idly and wait for the rain, embrace the sun and raise yourself to greater heights."

"Five Star Recipe for Fun"

Ingredients needed:

 5 innocent children

4 childlike parents

5 pies made of whip cream (keep refrigerated until ready for use)

One very convincing game

Directions:  Make sure all of the 5 children are completely unaware of what is going to happen.  Combine them all in a nice orderly line, make sure the little one follows directions or he could ruin the entire recipe, remain calm, no giggling, proceed to count down and then have them turn around to participate in the highly believable fictitious game and WHAM grace them with a face of whip cream.  The end result is a recipe that will be passed down for many generations to come.

"The best laid plans are ones lined with laughter, surprise and a little cool whip. "
