I will protect you until you are grown and then I will let you fly free, but loving you, that is for always.

Becoming a mother makes you the mother of all children. From now on each wounded, abandoned, frightened child is yours. You live in the suffering mothers of every race and creed and weep with them. You long to comfort all who are desolate.

A dog trusts deeply and so is easily betrayed.

Success is not fame or money or the power to bewitch. it is to have created something valuable from your own individuality and skill a garden, an embroidery, a painting, a cake, a life.

We may look old and wise to the outside world. But to each other, we are still in junior school.

I will protect you until you are grown and then I will let you fly free, but loving you, that is for always.

Small child once you were a hope, a dream. Now you are a reality. Changing all that is to come. A love to hold our hearts forever.
