Celebrating Life

A happy little post for my sweet grandson, Tyler Jet, who is one year old today... and happens to have the same birthday as Walt Whitman!


 "Keep your face always toward the sunshine -
and shadows will fall behind you."


"Happiness, not in another place but this place...
not for another hour, but this hour."



"Peace is always beautiful."


 "To me, every hour of the day and night
is an unspeakably perfect miracle."


"Be curious, not judgmental."

~Walt Whitman  (May 31, 1819 – March 26, 1892)

    What a lovely Birthday post for your Grandson.
    I hope there is a way to save this post so later he is able to read this, and all the posts to come.

    My granddaughter is also 1 year old today, I remembering you mentioning this last year, and I did a post for her Birthday too.
    We are so lucky !

    Happy Happy Birthday to your little one .

    cheers, parsnip
