"Your body is the first thing any child of man ever wanted. Therefore dispose yourself to be loved, to be wanted, to be available. Be there for them with a vengeance. Be a gracious, bending woman. Incline your ear, your heart, your hands to them.... To be a Mother is to be the sacrament - the effective symbol - of place. Mothers do not make homes, they are our home." from Bed and Board, Robert Farrar Capon

Well Put

    Thanks Leah, I really like that, especially #10. I can't say this is glorifying God if I'm mad at them! I'm thankful for baptism to be reminded of this and so many other things :-)
