My New Favorite Quote . . .


"You is kind. You is smart. You is important."
— Kathryn Stockett
 (The Help)

I know . . .
this is not proper grammar,
so when I say this to my grandchildren
I will say . . .
"You are kind.  You are smart.  You are important."

My sisters and I saw this.
Excellent!
Made us cry and laugh!

    Beautiful qoute, I don't think kindness is taught much these days.

    I have not seen the movie but I did just get the book on my Kindle and am already reading it for a 2nd time.

    I read the book last year and was excited to see the movie. It hasn't made it to our local theaters so we drove to a town 50 minutes away Sunday afternoon to see it. It was well worth the trip!

    Thanks for the review, Carol. I don't see a lot of movies, but this one is on my list. And sharing the movie with your sisters sounds like such a good time!

    Great quote :)
    I am so glad you liked the movie.
    It still has not come to our theater. Maybe our town is too small??
    Hope you're having a great day!
