Human Laptops

"All children need a laptop.

Not a computer, but a human laptop.

Moms, dads, grannies and grandpas, aunts, uncles -

someone to hold them, read to them, teach them.

Loved ones who will embrace them

and pass on the experience,

rituals and knowledge of a hundred previous generations

Loved ones who will pass to the next generation

their expectations of them,

their hopes, and their dreams."- General Colin Powell

I will be forever grateful to the laptops that I've been loved on,

and the children that love to be on mine.

Happy Mother's Day!
