Children

God has mothers carry children in their bodies for nine months, thus creating an unbreakable bond. At least for the mother. The only one who loves you more than your mother is your higher power.

But at the same time, God creates an undeniable desire in the child to test that bond. Each day, sometimes in small ways, sometimes in unbelievably huge ways, your child will do it's very best to test and perhaps even break the bond that God has created.

Which mother is stronger I wonder? The one who holds on so tight and never lets go? Or the one who isn't afraid to let go and let the child figure it out for them self?
