So Beautiful. Being a parent is one of the most wonderful privileges of human life. I am in amazement of my 4 children and 4 grandchildren every day. They have enriched my life and the lives of countless others.

Children are our progeny, our hope for the future of humanity, and they carry forth our ideals to change history itself.

One of our family ideals is the belief “To Whom Much is Given, Much is Expected”.

And I’m sure that millions of children worldwide will someday surely fulfill that destiny.

Frederick, thank you.

‘To whom much is given, much is expected.’

Yes. I think this is beautiful and quite true.

And our children do indeed create the future. What an enormous honor and responsibility it is to be a parent.

This really touched me, thank you.

Some of my child-isms:

Story telling

Books on the toilet

Bathtime

Sprinklers

Lollipops

Blowing bubble gum bubbles

Colouring outside the lines

Barefoot on the Earth

Bare bummed on the sand

Naked in the sea

Missing teeth

Snuggles with mama

Roughhousing with tata

Being given *very important* tasks to do in the kitchen

KD dinners

Snow days

Building snowmen

Being the absolute centre, love and light of any room you’re in

Thank you for this invitation Sarah ♥️ god motherhood is so healing. In these moments with our children we are literally giving ourselves the things we give our children. There is nothing I am more thankful and grateful for 🙏

I too am grateful and privileged to be able to offer health and safety and a thriving life to my child ♥️🙏
