Motherhood:

• “Motherhood is near to divinity. It is the highest, holiest service to be assumed by mankind” the First Presidency
• “First of all, as I mentioned before, she is a co-partner with God in bringing his spirit children into the world. What a glorious concept! No greater honor could be given.” President N. Eldon Tanner
• “A mother has far greater influence on her children than anyone else, and she must realize that every word she speaks, every act, every response, her attitude, even her appearance and manner of dress affect the lives of her children and the whole family. It is while the child is in the home that he gains from his mother the attitudes, hopes, and beliefs that will determine the kind of life he will live, and the contribution he will make to society.” President N. Eldon Tanner
