"Observe how soon"

Last edited Sun May 13, 2018, 08:41 PM - Edit history (1)



"Observe how soon, and to what a degree, a mother's influence begins to operate! Her first ministration for her infant is to enter, as it were, the valley of the shadow of death, and win its life at the peril of her own! How different must an affection thus founded be from all others!" - Lydia H. Sigourney
