"People, like plants, put down deep roots, making it difficult to move. A part of them is always left behind. Yet, after a period of adjustment, they often flourish beyond where they might have had they stayed put."
Mothers Day
"A mother has far greater influence on her children than anyone else, and she must realize that every word she speaks, every act, every response, her attitude, even her appearance and manner of dress affect the lives of her children and the whole family. It is while the child is in the home that he gains from his mother the attitudes, hopes, and beliefs that will determine the kind of life he will live and the contribution he will make to society."
N. Eldon Tanner
"Young parents, hold your children a little longer today. Kiss them when you put the into bed tonight, say their prayers with them, sit by them while they fall asleep. Your children are the greatest gift God will give to you, and their souls the heaviest responsibility He will place in your hands. Take time with them, teach them to have faith in God. Be a person in whom they can have faith. When you are old, nothing else you've done will have mattered as much." Lisa Wingate Tending Roses
