Mothers
Love

Is boundless. Yet it is utterly helpless
to give strength to the child born with a
low vitality. The time to give strength
to the child is before birth and to impart
this gift the mother herself must be
strong. When the mother is weak and
nervous, dreading the coming time of
her trial, she impresses her feelings on
the little life linked to her own. When
the baby comes it is fretful and nervous,
marring all the joy of motherhood by its
restlessness and wailing.
