BEATITUDES FOR PARENTS
Blessed are parents who make their peace with mud and spilled milk, for of such is the kingdom of childhood.
Blessed are parents who refuse to compare their children with others, for each is precious.
Blessed are fathers and mothers who have learned to laugh, for it is the music of the child's world.
Blessed are parents who can say No without anger, for comforting to the child is the security of a firm decision.
Blessed are parents who accept the awkwardness of their growing children, letting each grow at his own speed.
Blessed are parents who are teachable, because knowledge brings understanding and love.
Blessed are parents who love their children in the midst of a hostile world, for love is the greatest of all gifts.
