"give her the fruit of her hands: and let her own works praise her in the gates."-proverbs 31:31
"for a christian, motherhood is the subtle art of building a house in grace-"the wise woman builds her house, but the foolish pulls it down with her hands"(prov 14:1). each day's work is significant, for it contributes toward the long term plan. each nail helps a house stand in a storm. but motherhood isn't a simple formula. building a home- childbirth, education, discipline- requires holy joy and a love of beauty. the mother who fears God does not fear the future."
