Amen to that


Truth
Honor
Virtue
Self-control
Honest work
Education
purpose
Life




"The home is the first and most effective place for children to learn the lessons of life: truth, honor, virtue, self-control; the value of education, honest work, and the purpose and privilege of life. Nothing can take the place of home in rearing and teaching children, and no other success can compensate for failure in the home."
David O. McKay

I definitely think both of our children will know the value of education after all is said and done.

I've never read the beginning of that quote before, but "no success can compensate for failure in the home" has always been one of my favorites. In fact the first time I ever read it was in the child development building (what building was that?) at college!
