Serving the heart of California since 1892

Aren’t kids grand?

One thing is for certain. Every adult was once a child.

Even though it has been many decades since I was a child, there is something within me that loves youthfulness. I enjoyed being a youngster, and I have some really good memories of my life as a child.

Children now grow up too fast. They are exposed to many realities of life before they are fully able to understand them. The innocence I knew as a child no longer exists. I was twelve before I knew how babies were made. I’m not sure I knew even then.
