“I will not play tug o’ war. I’d rather play hug o’ war. Where everyone hugs instead of tugs, Where everyone giggles and rolls on the rug, Where everyone kisses, and everyone grins, and everyone cuddles, and everyone wins.” – Shel Silverstein.
Robin’s Blog
I'm a wife and a Mother of 4 grown children. I have 4 grandchildren who are my joy. This is my journey to rediscovering who I am. In other words, what comes after being a stay at home Mom. Wife, Mother, Grandmother, Daughter, Sister, Blogger, Writer, stubborn and opinionated, voracious reader and a seeker of truth in all things....in other words me.

Ah, the very wise Shel. Perfect quote for today! Have a great celebration, Robin!
I LOVE this quote from Shel Silverstein. And I’m with Ink – the perfect quote for today. Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving! Sending lots and lots of hugs to you, too!
Happy Thanksgiving Day to you too – hope you have had a grat day!! (ps we’re watching The Packers play The Lions on ESPN in celebration for you!!)
Hug-o-War kicks butt. Happy Thanksgiving to you.
Great poem! Way to pull out the Shel Silverstein!
Happy Thanksgiving!
I have also used this poem on my blog- one of my favorites. I read my son, The Giving Tree all the time. He loves it and is only 2.
