Children Quote by John Duffy
“To my daughter, Madison... Youth is but a moment in life. Embrace it and carry it in your heart forever, for it is the time that shapes your future, your personality, your strength, your weakness. Enjoy it. Learn from it. And realize its main purpose is to teach you that which you think is typically wrong. For that lesson will be taught the rest of your life, over and over again. I love you, and I am proud of you; both, and always.”
