"The home is the first and most effective place for children to learn the
lessons of life: truth, honor, virtue, self control, the value of education,
honest work, and the purpose and privilege of life. Nothing can take the place
of home in rearing and teaching children, and no other success can compensate
for failure in the home."
David O. McKay
Take time to undo the knots in your family ties.
Exaltation: Having a Family in the presence of God.
The Brave do not live forever, the hesitant do not get to live again.
In order to succeed we must first believe that we can."
Michael Korda
The ornament of a house is the friends who frequent it."
Ralph Waldo Emerson
".... The family is being assailed on every side. It is with deep concern
that we urge you as parents to gather your children around you and build love,
loyalty and companionship in your homes. You are responsible to teach your
children to walk uprightly before the Lord."
The First Presidency of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
"The time will come when only those who believe deeply and actively in the
family will be able to preserve their families in the midst of the gathering
evil around us."
Spencer W. Kimball
My Mother
by Aprille Tanner
I'm your daughter, you're my
mother and you know what's best
for me. You even taught me how
to sew. Sometimes I do bad
things, disobey you, I know it's true.
But even through all the bad
things and hard times I've put you
through, you stayed there for me
every time so true. You told me
that you loved me, sometimes I
didn't understand. But I'd like
you to know, I love you too, so
much more than I've expressed.
Your loving arms reach out for
me, your hands stroke my hair.
Sometimes your mad at me, and me
at you. But please know that all
though it may seem like a big deal
at the time,
it's nothing compared to the deep
love I feel for you. Just know
That all the hard work you've put
into your thirteen children,
including me, has paid off. Even
though it doesn't seem like it at
times. And we all love you dearly.
You're the best, and I'm so glad you're
my mother.
