"It isn't Easy being Green!"
We're working on a cute Green package for our Green Elder in Taiwan. We found some cute things in a trip to Target and Samuel can't wait to spray paint the box green to send it off. Here are some of the sayings we've attached to the fun:

Ode to a Greenie--Author Unknown
Don’t get mad if they call you green
Stop and think what they really mean.
That you’re young and growing, full of life
Ready for anything – battle or strife.
Come back strong and say, “You bet . . .
I hope I’m green for a long time yet.”
This must never be forgotten
For right after ripe – comes rotten!
It was fun to stand in line at the post office with his Bright Green box! It certainly didn't look like the many other boxes in their huge crate of packages going out that day! We hope it brings a smile and hug to our Elder! xoxoxo
