ROOTS AND WINGS: Thoughts on Motherhood

Motherhood is a God-given call, task and blessing. And among the many things mothers can give their children are roots and wings. Mothers give their children roots by establishing them in the Lord and surrounding them in a heritage of love, prayer and devotion to God. But they also need to give their children wings in letting them fly as high as they can by the grace of God. The following are some famous quotes on motherhood.

"All that I am or ever hope to be, I owe to my angel Mother." -- Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865)

"My mother was the most beautiful woman I ever saw. All I am I owe to my mother. I attribute all my success in life to the moral, intellectual and physical education I received from her." -- George Washington (1732-1799)

"The mother's heart is the child's schoolroom." -- Henry Ward Beecher (1813-1887)
