Quotes to Ponder

"Let us hope that we are all preceded in this world by a love story." - Don Snyder

This quote was part of the opening credits on a movie I just watched called "Sweet Land". I can't help but think that every child deserves parents who are in love. I always want my son to know that Darren and I love each other and that his life is the ultimate expression of our love.

"Never forget that these little ones are the sons and daughters of God and that yours is a custodial relationship to them, that He was a parent before you were parents and that He has not relinquished His parental rights or interest in these little ones. Now, love them, take care of them...welcome them into your homes and nurture and love them with all of your hearts." -Gordon B. Hinckley

This quote is a good reminder that Darren and I are not alone in raising our son and that Heavenly Father is ready and willing to help us raise him in righteousness. I hope that one day I can be worthy of being Trevor's mom and that Heavenly Father will let me keep him for eternity.

"I love these little people; and it is not a slight thing, when they, who are so fresh from God, love us." - Charles Dickens

My little boy, who just over 5 weeks ago was living with his Father is Heaven, has come to the earth so full of trust and love for Darren and I. I am amazed at the love I felt instantly for our little boy and overwhelmed by the love I know that Trevor has for us. He has learned how to love from the ultimate source of love; Father in Heaven.
