Take your needle, my child, and work at your pattern; it will come out a rose by and by. Life is like that – one stitch at a time taken patiently and the pattern will come out all right like the embroidery. – Oliver Wendell Holmes
I was always a drama queen. I remember playing in the kitchen, trying to get my mom to think I was dead and call the police. When she didnt, I would cry. I was always theatrical. I dont think any of my relatives are surprised. – Amy Lee
