there is eternal influence and power in motherhood.

[ julie b. beck ]

our children are not going to be just “our children,”

they are going to be other people’s husbands and wives

and the parents of our grandchildren.

down the road of life

after you have shown him the way.

while loving someone deeply gives you courage.
