Quote

“Kids’ needs are rarely ‘convenient.’ What they require in order to succeed rarely comes cheaply.

To raise them well will require daily sacrifice of many kinds, which has the wonderful spiritual effect of helping mold us into the character of Jesus Christ himself. God invites us to grow beyond ourselves and to stop acting as though our dreams begin and end with us. Once we have children, we cannot act and dream as though we had remained childless.”
