Papoose Parker

When you rise in the morning, give thanks for the light, for your life, for your strength. Give thanks for your food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason to give thanks, the fault lies in yourself.

Tecumseh
A child carrier, especially ones resembling those of Native Americans, is sometimes referred to as a Papoose.

A papoose (from the Algonquianpapoose, meaning “child”) is an American English loanword whose present meaning is “a Native American child” (regardless of tribe) or, even more generally, any child, usually used as a term of endearment, often in the context of the child’s mother. The word came originally from the Narragansett tribe. In 1643, Roger Williams recorded the word in his A Key Into the Language of America, helping to popularize it.[1]

Smile….😃😃😃😃😃

Smile even though it’s breaking.
When there are CLOUDS in the sky
you’ll get by.If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You’ll see the sun come shining through
For you.Light up your face with gladness,
Hide every trace of sadness.
Although a tear may be ever so nearThat’s the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what’s the use of crying.
You’ll FIND that life is still worthwhile-
If you just smile.That’s the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what’s the use of crying.
You’ll FIND that life is still worthwhile-
If you just smile.
