love quote   

“It may be possible to gild pure gold, but who can make his mother more beautiful?” —Mahatma Gandhi

Food is love. Serve it that way your child will feel it.

“There is no role in life that is more essential than that of motherhood.” —Elder M. Russell Ballard

“A mother is she who can take the place of all others but whose place no one else can take.” —Cardinal Mermillod

Receive the children in reverence, educate them in love, and send them forth in freedom.

- Rudolf Steiner (Australian Philosopher)

Loving a child doesn't mean giving in to all his/ her whims, to love him is to bring out the best in him, to teach him/ her to love what is difficult.

- Nadia Boulanger (French Composer)

Let me love you a little more before you're not little anymore.

“The influence of a mother in the lives of her children is beyond calculation.” —James E. Faust

Too much love never spoils children. Children become spoiled when we substitute 'presents' for presence.

- Anthony Witham (Photographer)

Your children are not your children.

They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself.

They come through you but not from you,

And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.

You may give them your love but not your thoughts,

For they have their own thoughts.

You may house their bodies but not their souls,

For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.

You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you.

For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.

You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth.

The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite, and He bends you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far.

Let your bending in the archer’s hand be for gladness;

For even as He loves the arrow that flies, so He loves also the bow that is stable.
