Let’s face it. The call to motherhood ranks as one of the most important vocations a woman can have. To her, God is entrusting another human person, and the fruit of her work will play a major role in the eternal destiny of her child. What mothers say and do makes a lasting impression on her child and can have lasting consequences as well. Now, dare we lose heart, children are resilient and quick to forgive, but they are observant and the virtues or vices we demonstrate are often the ones they most remember and imitate. What are we teaching our children? And how can we cooperate with grace to make sure it is what we want to teach them?
