Every child born into the world is a new thought of God, an ever fresh and radiant possibility

While we try to teach our children all about life, our children teach us what life is all about.

It does make a difference what you call things.

The soul grows into lovely habits as easily as into ugly ones, and the moment a life begins to blossom into beautiful words and deeds, that moment a new standard of conduct is established, and your eager neighbors look to you for a continuous manifestation of the good cheer, the sympathy, the ready wit, the comradeship, or the inspiration, you once showed yourself capable of. Bear figs for a season or two, and the world outside the orchard is very unwilling you should bear thistles.

The smallest children are nearest to God, as the smallest planets are nearest the sun

We discussed the possibility of the grandmother starting to have visitation with the children. We are setting up a timetable to arrange these visits.
