Some days you just need a good quote

A Mother’s Most Important Role Is to Love Her Family Above All Else “I surely know that there is no role in life more essential and more eternal than that of motherhood.“There is no one perfect way to be a good mother. Each situation is unique. Each mother has different challenges, different skills and abilities, and certainly different children. The choice is different and unique for each mother and each family. Many are able to be ‘full-time moms,’ at least during the most formative years of their children’s lives, and many others would like to be. Some may have to work part- or full-time; some may work at home; some may divide their lives into periods of home and family and work. What matters is that a mother loves her children deeply and, in keeping with the devotion she has for God and her husband, prioritizes them above all else.” M. Russell Ballard

I love your quote. I had such a great night with Ethan playing and just having fun. It was amazing to just be a mom with my son!

Such a good quote, especially on a day of trials. Sometimes it's hard to be a mom. But nothing is more rewarding than to watch your daughters become mothers. Thanks for being such a good mom to my treasured grandkids.
