"I love you with all my butt, I would say heart, but my butt is bigger."

"Worrying won't stop the bad stuff from happening; it just keeps you from enjoying the good."


JOY

Joy soars into the air
A flowing scarf in the wind
Lifting everyone's hearts.


DANGER

Danger hides in a closet
A whipping belt, raised high
Ready to attack.


CURIOSITY

Curiosity tugs at the mind
An inflating life vest
Growing bigger and bigger.

Independence

Independence takes over
In a neon green t-shirt
Commanding attention from the crowd.


SECURITY

Security tightens its hold
Folding us into its cozy embrace
Comforting a vulnerable child.
