Inspiring and Funny Quote by Maurice Sendak

Hello Guys!

What a looong day.  Did anyone else feel like the clock was moving backwards today instead of ticking forwards. 

I am so tired (per usual), Mer has a sinus infection, and I have an unbelievable amount of reading to do for Anatomy and Physiology.

However, I found a great quote today by Maurice Sendak that made me laugh out loud at work today:

"Once a little boy sent me a charming card with a little drawing on it. I loved it. I answer all my children’s letters — sometimes very hastily — but this one I lingered over. I sent him a card and I drew a picture of a Wild Thing on it. I wrote, “Dear Jim: I loved your card.” Then I got a letter back from his mother and she said, “Jim loved your card so much he ate it.” That to me was one of the highest compliments I’ve ever received. He didn’t care that it was an original Maurice Sendak drawing or anything. He saw it, he loved it, he ate it."
—Maurice Sendak (found on Bobulate)

 I love this story.  Life can be really beautiful a lot of the time.

Lots of Love,

Jess
