Mothers -

don't ever forget the permanence of your imprint.
The kids may seem ungrateful,
they may act irresponsible,
they may even ignore your reminders
and forget your advice.
But believe this - 
they cannot erase your influence.

~ Charles R. Swindoll ~

    Oh such a wonderful balm of words and encouragement this evening...and from Charles Swindoll...he is now here in my area, but when the kids were little we heard him daily on the radio.
    Thanks!
