“The work of a mother is hard, too often unheralded work. Please know that it is worth it then, now, and forever.” —Jeffrey R. Holland“
President David O. McKay
“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.”
I really like these quotes because I feel that a mother has an incredible influence on her child´s attitudes, work ethic, and sense of self worth. I love the quote from President McKay because I do feel that it is from our parents that we learn how to love.
Leslie--you are going to be a fantastic mom! You are hardworking, talented, and honest---I feel that you will be able to bless your children with your love of life and your love of the Savior. Thank you for always being such a great friend---compassionate, a great listener, and not afraid to say what you are really thinking. Your excellent communication skills will bless your children.
I love you!
Katie
