Motherhood

I know- I've posted a lot recently about womanhood and motherhood... but it is SO important! I truly believe that the well-being of women and mothers greatly determine the well-being of families.

“Motherhood is the greatest potential influence either for good or ill in human life. The mother's image is the first that stamps itself on the unwritten page of the young child's mind. It is her caress that first awakens a sense of security; her kiss, the first realization of affection; her sympathy and tenderness, the first assurance that there is love in the world.”
( Gospel Ideals, [1953], 452.)
