Folks say Adam
Why Gmdo you polish your crib when you don't have a kid? And even if you did have a kid, This cFmrib is too precious for placing a baby inside it
So it simply exists to remind you
Your sAbense of perfection is just a reflection that Bbyou are not mentally prepared to make room for a kCmid Adam, why don't you lEbive? Adam, just make a sFtart Are you willing to take the next step?Fm
