Parenting Quote by Dennis Vickers
““Would you recognize your mother’s face in a thousand faces? Clinton waited for Evie to answer. Of course. Can you describe her face so well I would recognize her in a thousand faces? He waited again. I don’t think so. That’s the difference. You’re familiar with your mother’s face. When you know something that way, the connection is straight to your heart. Words are incidental, unnecessary. That’s what I mean by spiritual.””
