I enjoyed Saydi Eyre Shumway's thoughts about mothering. "Mothers build lives.
"I love this quote, it’s one of my mom’s favorites:
Every mother is like Moses. She does not enter the promised land. She prepares a world she will not see. - Pope Paul VI
"And this talk about cathedrals, and the invisible woman.
"We don’t do this work for the same reasons we do other things in life. It is motivated by love. And love is good at delayed gratification."
