“I will not play tug o' war. I'd rather play hug o' war. Where everyone hugs instead of tugs, Where everyone giggles and rolls on the rug, Where everyone kisses, and everyone grins, and everyone cuddles, and everyone wins.” ~Shel Silverstein
Lately, Emma Sage has been real into Shel Silverstein [Makes this Momma's heart soar, as I adore reading the incredible poetry of Shel Silverstein] and she is now at a reading level where she can pick up his books and read his poems with realitive ease.

Love Shel Silverston too! Cute photo!
Shel Silverstein is one of my favorites! I think I might still be able to recite the one that starts, "I cannot go to school today said little Peggy Ann McKay" hehe
Such an amazing girl. Love Shel S, too.
Such a sweet sentiment, love the picture.....

- 50% of those diagnosed will not live to see their 2nd birthday
- kids with SMA lose the ability to sit, stand, walk, talk, eat, swallow, and breathe
- 1 in 40 people is a carrier
- the National Institute of Health says that SMA is the #1 CURABLE disease if given research funding
- right now there is NO cure and NO treatment
