Zach's Mom

I [Lonnie] thought of our house when I read this quote from Theodore Roosevelt from 1905.

No piled-up wealth, no splendor of material growth, no brilliance of artistic development, will permanently avail any people unless its home life is healthy ...

No ordinary work done by a man is either as hard or as responsible as the work of a woman who is bringing up a family of small children; for upon her time and strength demands are made not only every hour of the day but often every hour of the night ...

The woman who is a good wife, a good mother, is entitled to our respect as is no one else.

Couldn't agree more.
