The Gift of a Mother

“Most of all the other beautiful things in life come by twos and threes by dozens and hundreds. Plenty of roses, stars, sunsets, rainbows, brothers, and sisters, aunts and cousins, 

but only one mother in the whole world.”

-Kate Douglas Wiggin

Proverbs 1:8-9

New Living Translation (NLT)

A Father’s Exhortation: Acquire Wisdom

 ⁸ My child,^[a] listen when your father corrects you.
      Don’t neglect your mother’s instruction.
 ⁹ What you learn from them will crown you with grace
      and be a chain of honor around your neck.
