He can be incredibly charming, cuddly and lovable. He has a wonderful sense of humor and loves to make me laugh. He can also be so shy that he doesn't want strangers to even look at him. He can be violent, especially when his older brother won't let up and leave him alone. He can whine and scream and hit and drive me crazy! Jamie was so compliant and easy. I used to think I knew so much. I was such a smug parent. Then along comes Robert and I am not looking so smart anymore. No wonder I have so many grey hairs now!
What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare? No time to stand beneath the boughs and stare as long as sheep or cows. No time to see, in broad daylight, streams full of stars, like skies at night. No time to turn at Beauty's glance, and watch her feet, how they can dance. No time to wait till her mouth can, enrich that smile her eyes began? A poor life this if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare. William Henry Davies
