It didn't take me long to find it. I hope this helps.

MetzyMom,
Your Top 10 was a HUGE hit! Everybody loved it! And our attendance was only down by 10 people. We even had a bunch of new faces. It worked wonders! I think I will be including some other words of wisdom in each newsletter also. Here are a couple that I found in an email that I got today....
There is only one pretty child in the world and every mother has it. - Chinese Proverb

Children will soon forget your presents, they will always remember your presence. - Dobson

Ever notice that a human baby doesn't walk until it's tall enough to reach a parent's hand?

Children: You spend the first two years of their life teaching them to walk and talk. Then you spend the next 16 telling them to sit down and be quiet.

We don't inherit the Earth from our parents, we borrow it from our children.

Laughter is like changing a baby's diaper. It doesn't permanentaly solve any problems, but it makes things more acceptable for a while.

Sign in our veterinarians office: "All children left unattended, will be given a free kitten."

This one I heard on Good Morning America.....
Won't it be a great day when the Air Force has to hold a bake sale to buy a new bomber And the schools have all the money?

Just a few ideas anyway.

Metzy Mom
I too like your top 10 and if you don't mind will change to fit our PTO. Frankly our first meeting only had 10 folks, 4 of us board members and 1 new parent. So this can't hurt. We are considering cutting out 3 PTO meetings this year and having a family night instead those months.
I would also like to look into speakers for the meetings.
thanks Chris

I'd be so proud! Feel free to tweek it to fit!

Enjoy,
Elizabeth

At the bottom of each meeting's agenda I have "pearls of wisdom" "points to ponder" or some other seemingly useless but humorous or serious information. Last month's, for example, was

Points to Ponder

If croutons are stale bread, why do they come in airtight packages?

Why does mineral water that has “trickled through mountains for centuries” have a “use by” date?

If the professor on Gilligan’s Island can make a radio out of a coconut, why can’t he fix a hole in the boat?

Why does a “slight” tax increase cost you $200.00 and a substantial tax cut save you thirty cents?

Pearls of Wisdom

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take . . . but by the moments that take our breath away.

I am thinking of plagiarizing one of these at a time on the agenda for folks to invite others to attend. Is that o.k. with you Metzy?

Since attendance usually drops at our second meeting, I think I will include this in the newsletter for this month. Thank you Metzy Mom!
