Happiness is having a large, loving, caring, close-knit family in another city.

God did not intend the human family to be wafted to heaven on flowery beds of ease.

There's nothing I value more than the closeness of friends and family, a smile as I pass someone on the street.

For me, nothing has ever taken precedence over being a mother and having a family and a home.

Pray in your family daily, that yours may be in the number of the families who call upon God.

One of the things that binds us as a family is a shared sense of humor.

Some of the most important conversations I've ever had occurred at my family's dinner table.

All the men in my family were bearded, and most of the women.

Fathers should be neither seen nor heard. That is the only proper basis for family life.

I would love a family. I'm at the age where the wish for a child gets stronger. But who knows.
