Friday Quotes

 

The most important thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother.

 ~Theodore Hesburgh

My brother quoted this at our father's funeral.  And Dad lived it.  I think I have so many happy childhood memories because I was so secure in my parents' love.

Welcome to this week’s edition of Aloha Friday.  Where I ask a simple question for you to answer.  Nothing that requires a lengthy response. I hope you'll play along.  Then ask your own question and go to Aloha Friday to link up and find more questions to answer.

Black Friday is only a week away.  Thousands of people will stand in line all night to rush in and get bargains on Friday morning.  I have never gone shopping on this day.  Partly because I don't like to get up that early.  Or these days it would be to stay up all night.  And partly because shopping that day is getting dangerous in some stores.

I don't mind shopping in a crowd as long as everyone is calm.  But when folks start pushing and running and grabbing and fighting over the last Cabbage Patch doll (showing my age there, aren't I?) or the last Tickle Me Elmo, I'm outa there.  I'm not huge into needing to have the latest, greatest, most popular.  Ask my daughter!  She'll tell you that I refused to buy a Cabbage Patch doll for her.  I'm so heartless that I commissioned a woman to make a beautiful hand made, hand embroidered doll instead.  I think she forgave me.  Maybe.

So here's my question....

Next week is Black Friday.  Will you stand in line to go shopping?  What's your favorite place to shop?
