Mom Is the Heart of the Home

The following was taken from a book “Parenting Principals from the Heart of a Pediatrician”. I bought this book for quite sometime now and I haven’t been able to complete the entire book. I have been encouraged by this section specially the title, and I hope it does for you mommies out there.
So here goes:
It has been well said, “The father is the head of the house, the mother is the heart of the house.” Moms hold it all together. They keep the emotional balance.
A mother’s heart is what transforms a house into a home. As we enter adulthood, we often contemplate the memories of home. I doubt we think how the bricks were laid, or how the paint was chipped around the window seal, or where the stains were upon the carpet. But no matter what kind of home you were raised in, your thoughts are emotional. To me, memories of home bring forth feelings of comfort, security, love and peace. For others who did not have the privilege of being raised in a godly home, they may have feelings rising within them of hatred, pain, bitterness, wrath, and injustice. Mothers, God has given you the role to make the difference in the memories of your children.
