"Authority is that aspect of love which parents present to their children; parents know that it is love, because to them it means continual self-denial, self-repression, self-sacrifice; children recognize it as love, because to them it means quiet rest and gaiety of heart." From School Education. ❤️❤️❤️

"'Blessed are the peacemakers' (Matt 5:9). I believe all adults who have an office of authority over children should meditate on this regularly." 💕

"The basis of a wholesome approach to life with children is an appreciation of them as people, and at the same time a realistic understanding of how we are going to be doers of the Lord's word and not hearers only."

"It is a challenge to us to keep alive the eagerness the nine-month-old child displays when a cupboard is left open." 🥰🥰🥰

"Children benefit from working steadily through a well-chosen book. And if they narrate it to you, it will become theirs."

Maybe my favorite thing about narration! ❤️

"It is important to keep a check on how much of a child's time is being 'organized.'"
