Tuscan Sun and Elephants


"Never lose your childish enthusiasm
and things will come your way."
I have 4 grand daughters who really live in the world. Everyone is currently under 6 years and all are 16 if you catch my drift.  We say when they get older they are going to be a handful. They decided not to wait.

We talk a lot about elephants when they visit as one of us is pretty sure there are whole herds of them lurking about outside just waiting to be seen.  These stories are met with Shirley Temple eyes of disbelief so from time to time we find a photo of one and try and figure out where it was hiding. It is a good point for all of us.

Under the Tuscan Sun is a good book and good movie full up with good quotes and observations.  The "elephant" caption has one and this is one I want my grand daughters to keep in their mind's heart. 

If you grow old, please do so as a child.
