    When I was in college, I was told this: "Life is hard, then you die." It's true. But we are put here to soften it.

    My husband's version "Life's a bitch and then you die".

    We do try to keep things from our children...for their sakes as well as our need to feel independent. One day the shoe falls...the dam breaks and their innocense (sp) is destroyed.
