I just read this on a friend's blog and couldn't resist posting it. With Mother's Day coming up, I've been thinking quite a bit about our responsibilities as parents. This is beautiful--and a great reminder!
"Never forget that these little ones are the sons and daughters of God and that yours is a custodial relationship to them, that He was a parent before you were parents and that He has not relinquished His parental rights or interest in these little ones. Now, love them, take care of them...Rear your children in love, in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. Take care of your little ones, welcome them into your homes and nurture and love them with all of your hearts." (President Gordon B. Hinckley, Salt Lake University 3rd Stake Conference Address, 3 Nov 1996)
