Children Quote by Julie Cantrell
““Oh, dear child. You've got a lot to learn about marriage. Any food can choose the boy who send her heart into a flurry. But there's a big deep divide between desire and devotion. You better not choose the boy who makes you dizzy. No ma'am. You have to choose the one who is steady. Stable. Safe. Choose the one who loves you, through and through, for who you really are. The one who wouldn't change a single thing about you even if he could.””

Where everything around me hints there is more to offer but tells me time and again … not for me.” quote by Julie Cantrell](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/c10/julie-cantrell-27752_horse_h-is-gentle-horses-graze-on-fertile-gras_837049.jpg)
