Wise Words

"Diverse children have their different natures: some are like flesh which nothing but salt will keep from putrefaction (to corrupt, rot), some again like tender fruits that are best preserved with sugar. Those parents are wise that can fit their nurture to their nature."

Beyond Stateliest Marble: The Passionate Femininity of Anne Bradstreet

Excellent book to read, Anne Bradstreet glorified God as a wife and mother.
