But I do love it when a man has such a high view of motherhood like that. :) Hahaha Danka, I think you have a great point!

If he HAD, and persevered, then maybe he could offer advice to mothers.

If God's word is true, it should not be thought loathsome to be a mother but a beautiful experience.

Doesn't it seem obvious that nursing is the best way to nourish and nurture a baby? It's also an incredible experience for the mother. I treasure the memories of nursing my three children. It wasn't always easy, especially at the beginning, but determination and support from other moms got me through the rough times. What a beautiful quote.
