We believe in living deeply
laughing often and loving always
We believe we were brought together
to support and care for each other.
We believe in celebrating together
our faith, our heritage, our traditions
We believe that everyone's feelings count
and the uniqueness of each of us
strengthens all of us.
We believe in the power of forgiveness to heal
and the power of love to carry us through
We believe in one another in this family
in this home.
Hugs and kisses, lullabies, teddy bears and fireflies,
Little jammies, peekaboos, bedtime prayers
and I love yous.
Knock knock jokes and secret sharing
blankies, songs, and monster scaring
This is how the days go past
If only we could make them last.
