Ten of my favorite quotes-- perfect collection for school, home, gifts, and more! Simple black and white design-- ready and easy to print! Quotes included: Live with a whole heart. Sometimes the smallest things take up the most room in your heart. I love you to the moon and back. You are my sunshine, my only sunshine. You make me happy when skies are gray. The future belongs to those that believe in the beauty of their dreams. Beginnings are usually scary, endings are usually sad, but it's what's in the middle that counts. And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom. Live simply. Dream big. Be grateful. Give love. Laugh lots. Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you’ll land among the stars. Family, Where life begins and love never ends.
