I Know A Mom » Blog Archive » When I Grow Up I Will…

Everything about When I Grow Up is worth talking about! Their collection of adorable tees are designed to teach the core values you want to instill in your children – and will quite possibly make others stop and think, too. They are vivid and simple – but even more importantly, the graphics are printed using water-based ink onto 100% organic cotton. I love the idea! {Especially in comparison to the “I drool” tshirts at the local mega-store.} :) Tshirts that really mean something! And a portion of all proceeds from the Charity Tee will go to the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network.

And sings the tune–without the words,
And never stops at all.

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.

plan as though you’ll live forever, live as though you’ll die tomorrow
