"...the journey of caring for, raising, training, and loving children will mark us indelibly and powerfully. We cannot be the same people we once were; we will be forever changed, eternally altered. Spiritually speaking, we need to raise children every bit as much as they need us to raise them."

sacred parenting
"...calls us to focus our brief lives on what will create the most impact for future generations. we will soon be forgotten on earth, but we'll be remembered in heaven. let us humbly accept this fact, and then embrace the sacred trust of children that God bestows on us. we must reprioritize our lives according to our own relative insignificance, finally learning to think as God thinks- generationally. we are born, we die, and then we get out of the way. but those who hold parenting as a sacred journey, and treat it accordingly, will leave behind something wonderful and lasting."
