'Quote of the Week'

I love the written word. I love the way it can arouse a whole manner of different emotions. It can make you laugh or make you cry. Unlike the spoken word it is there forever, for you to re read whenever you feel like so you never forget what the original words were.

One of my favourite types of writing is quotes, they are short and to the point and can some up a situation perfectly in only a few words.

Because of my love for quotes and the written word I have decided to start 'Quote of the Week'.

This is how it works...

• Every Friday I will give you a theme for the week
• You go away and find a quote that relates to the theme
• You then write a post about your choice
• Finally come back here and join in with the linky

The rules...

• You must include a link to the original source of the quote
• You must state who the original author was
• Try to visit as many other entries as you can and leave some blog love
• Have fun x  

So the theme for this week (drum roll please) is... MOTHER. 

 'A mother is a person who seeing there are only four pieces of pie for five people, promptly announces she never did care for pie'.  ~Tenneva Jordan

I love this quote because for me it just somes up what being a mother is all about. You have to become selfless and suddenly it's not all about you any more but it's not a problem because the satisfaction you get from making sure everyone else has got what they want far out ways you having a bit of that pie.

So now it's your turn to join in x
