sunday quote

"A child needs a mother more than all the things money can buy. Spending time with your children is the greatest gift of all."

Ezra Taft Benson

I remember the "Parents Fireside" in 1987 when President Benson presented this address: To The Mothers in Zion

We were students at the University of Utah. I went away with renewed determination to spend not just quality time, but quantity time with my children.

After reading this quote today, I'm going to rededicate myself to making time for each of my children.

And, being my parents' child, I know that we never stop needing our mothers. So my determination extends to my grown children. They may not get amazing gifts, or financial support or big vacations. But they'll continue to get emails and phone calls and prayers on their behalf.

I love my children.
