Wes Fessler "There is nothing more dangerous than a lazy parent" Wes Fessler "If as a family we must be selective listeners, then let us pay more attention to the words of the heart and less to the words of anger". Wes Fessler "Every happy home has a foundation of love and a framework of support" Wes Fessler "In mere moments of togetherness, families forge their most indelibe memories."

Mother Teresa " Love begins at home and it is not how much we do, but how much love we put into that action" Mother Teresa " We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless.
