Be gentle.

Posted on 7:11 PM by Unknown
I feel like I say it a hundred times a day.
That ornament is very fragile, please be gentle.  
The leaves of this plant are delicate so you'll need to touch it gently.  
Be gentle with your brother. 
I'm not sure whether the boys hear me, but I kind of hope the calendar and the clock and the universe are listening.

Be gentle, 2013.  Please.
JEB
