The right words and sentences just do not come pouring out like ticker tape most of the time  (Anne Lamott Quotes) The first draft is the child’s draft, where you let it all pour out and then let it romp all over the place, knowing that no one is going to see it and that you can shape it later  (Anne Lamott Quotes) It’s almost like learning to meditate to learn to hear what your kid is actually saying  (Anne Lamott Quotes) Talking to the parents of older kids was helpful for me, since parents of kids the same age as yours won’t admit how horrible their children are  (Anne Lamott Quotes) It’s so great to be able to make people laugh, because this is so often how we get our selves back  (Anne Lamott Quotes) The solution is always spiritual, and it almost never has anything to do with the problem... laughter is carbonated holiness  (Anne Lamott Quotes) I just can’t get over how much babies cry. I really had no idea what I was getting into.

Most of them go around with haunted, abused, surprised looks on their faces, like lab dogs on whom very personal deodorant sprays have been tested  (Anne Lamott Quotes) Where do we even start on the daily walk of restoration and awakening? We start where we are  (Anne Lamott Quotes) I’m one of those religious people who are afraid of everything. I’m instantly worried about everything that could go wrong  (Anne Lamott Quotes) No matter what circumstances, it’s hard to be a parent and maintain a sense of self and identity in the world  (Anne Lamott Quotes) Churches are good for prayer, but so are garages and cars and mountains and showers and dance floors  (Anne Lamott Quotes) Frequently, as so many poets and psalmists and songwriters have said, the invisible shift happens through the broken places  (Anne Lamott Quotes) I’m kind of a gossip hound, but watching the media whip the small fires into giant forest fires so that they can cover the result is infuriating  (Anne Lamott Quotes) Nothing heals us like letting people know our scariest parts: When people listen to you cry and lament, and look at you with love, it’s like they are holding the baby of you  (Anne Lamott Quotes) I am going to try to pay attention to the spring. I am going to look around at all the flowers, and look up at the hectic trees.

I listen to a lot of folk music. I like reggae  (Anne Lamott Quotes) I’ve known for years that resentments don’t hurt the person we resent, but they do hurt us  (Anne Lamott Quotes) All parents are an embarrassment to their kids. Often, grandparents are the relief. Kids don’t have to resist you  (Anne Lamott Quotes) Everyone is flailing through this life without an owner’s manual, with whatever modicum of grace and good humor we can manage  (Anne Lamott Quotes)
