I just wanted to share with you a quote I love! Sometimes, I’m just drawn to quotes by others, as they seem to express what I’m thinking in MUCH better form than I can! This quote by Margaret Atwood always makes me think of how dirty kids equals happy kids . . . “In the spring, at the end of the day, you should smell like dirt.”

LOVE this quote! And I totally agree with it! My girls play outside for hours and come home dirty wet and stinky! But they love it and have so much fun!!!
Thanks, Tracey! I always think it’s a great day when the kids are dirty, with huge grins on their faces!! 🙂
Great quote!
Thanks, MaryAnne! I’m a sucker for good quotes, especially if they’re kid- or book-related! 🙂
Ooo, I love Margaret Atwood! It figures that this quote comes from her!
Thanks for stopping by, Amy! 🙂 I haven’t read anything by her in a while, but I still have some of my favorites on-hand! Which of her books do you like best?
