Family

  Genesis 18:19 "so that he will command his children and his household after him to keep the way of the Lord by doing what is right and just."


Exodus 20:12 - "Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the Lord your God is giving you."

 

Proverbs 17:6 - "Children's children are a crown to the aged, and parents are the pride of their children."

      • Deuteronomy 6:6-7 - "These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home andwhen you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up."

    • "Home is where the heart is." - Proverb
    • "Home is where love resides, memories are created, friends always belong, and laughter never ends." - Unknown
    • "A house is made of bricks and beams. A home is made of hopes and dreams." - Ralph Waldo Emerson






    • ”My grandkids believe I’m the oldest thing in the world. And after two or three hours with them, I believe it, too.”

      ”To become a grandparent is to enjoy one of the few pleasures in life for which the consequences have already been paid.”

      1. ”Grandkids bring you into a sweeter, slower present. They show you the future at a time when a lot of your friends are thinking about the past. And they take you back to childhood–theirs, the Parent’s, your own: a three-time admittance to wonderland.”   

      ”Grandchildren are the dots that connect the lines from generation to generation.”

      ”One of the most powerful handclasps is that of a new grandbaby around the finger of a grandfather.”    

      “Instead of writing the epitaph on your grave; more beautiful and memorable is to leave some handwritten letters to your wife, sons and daughters, and grandchildren.”

      ”Our grandchildren accept us for ourselves, without rebuke or effort to change us, as no one in our entire lives has ever done, not our parents, siblings, spouses, friends – and hardly ever our own grown children.”     

      ”Grandchildren don’t stay young forever, which is good because Pop-pops have only so many horsey rides in them.”

      ”If God had intended us to follow recipes, He wouldn’t have given us grandmothers.”

      ”Our children are not going to be just ‘our children’ – they are going to be other people’s husbands and wives and the parents of our grandchildren.”
