Cradle Song
Sleep, sleep, beauty bright,
Dreaming in the joys of night;
Sleep, sleep; in thy sleep
Little sorrows sit and weep.
Sweet babe, in thy face
Soft desires I can trace,
Secret joys and secret smiles,
Little pretty infant wiles.
As thy softest limbs I feel,
Smiles as of the morning steal
O'er thy cheek, and o'er thy breast
Where thy little heart doth rest.
O the cunning wiles that creep
In thy little heart asleep!
When thy little heart doth wake,
Then the dreadful night shall break.
William Blake

Where thy little heart doth rest.

The Clod and the Pebble
"Love seeketh not itself to please,
Nor for itself hath any care,
But for another gives its ease,
And builds a heaven in hell's despair."
So sung a little Clod of Clay,
Trodden with the cattle's feet,
But a Pebble of the brook
Warbled out these metres meet:
"Love seeketh only Self to please,
To bind another to its delight,
Joys in another's loss of ease,
And builds a hell in heaven's despite."
William Blake

And builds a hell in heaven's despite."

I think I'd be willing to live in a cardboard box if I could do so with Ryan gosling. :-)

**lol** I never used to get that until you started the #SNRyanGosling Meme!! Now I'm all over him! ;)

What Sunday said.....
Love it!

I even see the. . . "sensory cone" has already been installed!
9 March 2012 15:46
EXACTLY what Sunday said! Who cares where we live so long as we're with Ryan Gosling :D

I think I failed a little on my first real #SNRyanGosling meme... I meant more like really awesome sensory playground: perfect for rain or shine!! **lol** Oh well, there's always next week!! :)
But yeah; Ryan Gosling, me, a cardboard box... *Endless* possibilities! :)

I much prefer Rachael McAdams. But not the Notebook Rachael. I like the Wedding Crashers Rachael. I think that's how you spell her name.

There's an *awesome* balancer meme by BehaviorGuy on facebook!! It's not Rachael McAdams, it's Scarlett Johansson: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=305315199529292&set=a.201397129921100.50254.122150327845781&type=1
I think more guys need to get behind this one and start cranking out their own versions!! I'd love to see them! (Who ever ends up in the picture, I just really like the Hey Boy balancer).

This is so funny! I would love Ryan to build me a sensory gym!
9 March 2012 23:02
I'd live with Ryan under an overpass. Quite happily.
10 March 2012 03:25
I think Ryan could get it done too.
10 March 2012 07:11
Heh heh heh, yeah... Ryan could get *anything* done!
10 March 2012 18:31
LOVE it! I'd live anywhere with Gosling!
10 March 2012 19:03
Oh, we could use one of those!
12 March 2012 09:17
Only Ryan could make living under an overpass appealing. :)

Today, I went to the beach with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and
said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She put the
shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and
it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know
this is totally off topic but I had to tell someone!
