The Doer

I thank God for this lil girl that LOVES to snuggle and cuddle...I prayed for a child like this!

And I thank God, that even though this lil monkey is headstrong and has a mind of his own...

he truly is a doer and is always willing to help me with whatever. It is so exciting that he

actually can help put groceries away and sweep the floors! And for those of you that think

"What a horrible mom putting her kid to work"....Well, I never have to make him, all I do is ask

and he jumps at the oppurtunity!!

“the doer, not the mere critic- the man who actually does the work, even if roughly and imperfectly, not the man who only talks or writes about how it ought to be done” (Roosevelt, 1891). For, “Criticism is necessary and useful; it is often indispensable; but it can never take the place of action, or be even a poor substitute for it. The function of the mere critic is of very subordinate usefulness. It is the doer of deeds who actually counts in the battle for life, and not the man who looks on and says how the fight ought to be fought, without himself sharing the stress and the danger.” (Roosevelt, 1894)
