HELP! Looking for Quotes (for nursery decor)

By Mrs. Sunglasses Apr 18, 2012

I was wondering if you'd be willing to share your favorite quotes (that would work well in a nursery)

I need to create some artwork and seeing I am a fan of typography, I thought maybe having some kind of saying for baby girl might be great. I suck at this whole quote thing.

I don't read many books and my google searches haven't been very fruitful. Would you mind sharing your favorite quote and/or site?

It can be from a song, book, movie... but something that would fit for a nursery.

Thanks!

(and yes, I'm 36 weeks pregnant and not done the nursery yet!)

My mom used to sing me the korean version of "you are my sunshine" and I love the quote "You make me happy when skies are gray."

I am still thinking of a quote or two for you, but in the interim, I would like to say re 36 weeks/nursery that that shows incredible *restraint*!

@MsLipGloss: haha... ya. tell me about it. It was this whole rearranging the whole house. We needed to renovate the basement so that we can have our room there, then move our son in our old bedroom THEN work on the nursery.

We've been at it since January!!!!!

@blushink: I have a book my Mom and Dad gave me when I graduated College. It is a book of quotes about little girls. I'll look through it and see if any strike me as something that would be good on a wall.

Then I was thinking maybe a quote with shoe in it might be intresting. Seeing I am using a shoe as inspiration for the nursery.

"Cinderella is proof that a pair of shoes can change your life."

Here are a couple of my favorites from Story People:

The first time her laughter unfurled its wings in the wind, we knew that the world would never be the same.
(http://www.storypeople.com/storypeople/WebStory.do?action=Show&storyInSearch=1&storyID=1039&newIndex=2&startIndex=50)

For a long time, there were only your footprints & laughter in our dreams, & even from such small things we knew we could not wait to love you forever.
(http://www.storypeople.com/storypeople/WebStory.do?action=Show&storyInSearch=1&storyID=4101&newIndex=0&startIndex=0)

She laid on my chest & her breathing filled me almost to beyond what I could hold.

I'm going to paint lyrics from the song My Wish by Rascal Flatts on her wall, and on my DS' wall as well. I never ended up painting on his wall, so I'm going to do it while we're doing her room...

"My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish."
It gives me chills when I hear it...

I also love "Haven't Met You Yet" by Michael Buble, but I think I'm going to put that in their baby books underneath their ultrasound pictures.
