Being a mother means that your heart is no longer yours; it wanders wherever your children do.

George Bernard Shaw

Children are the anchors that hold the mother to life.

Sophocles

They say a person needs just three things to be truly happy in this world: someone to love, something to do, and something to hope for.

Tom Bodett

Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning. But for children play is serious learning. Play is really the work of childhood.

Fred Rogers

A man's worth is measured by how he parents his children. What he gives them, what he keeps away from them, the lessons he teaches and the lessons he allows them to learn on their own.

Lisa Rogers

One of the reasons we judge each other so harshly in this world of parenting is because we perceive anyone else who's doing anything differently than what we're doing as criticizing our choices.

Brené Brown
