The woman who makes a sweet, beautiful home – filling it with love and prayer and purity – is doing something better than anything else her hands could find to do beneath the skies. A true mother is one of the holiest secrets of home happiness. God sends many beautiful things to this world, many noble gifts; but no blessing is richer than that which He bestows in a mother who has learned love’s lessons well, and has realized something of the meaning of her sacred calling.”

~ J. R. Miller

To all the noble women who have raised us and loved us from the earliest days of our childhood, we thank you for your devotion and care; and we hope and pray that our sisters and daughters may follow in your footsteps.

God bless you, mothers, this day and always!
