I used to complain to my parents that there was a Mother's Day and a Father's Day, but no Children's Day. They responded: every day is children's day!

I love those Hans Christian Anderson images.

Yes, indeed. (Loved his stories as a kid.)
Into battle we ride with Gods by our side
We are strong and not afraid to die
We have an urge to kill and our lust for blood has to be fulfilled
WE´LL FIGHT TILL THE END! And send our enemies straight to Hell!
- "Into Battle"
{Ensiferum}
