They sang this song at Time Out for Women and a flood of memories came into my mind.
I remember this great song from when I was a little girl. On road trips, my little brothers and I would lay in the back of the station wagon (yep, I'm that old) and listen to the tape, "Songs for a Mormon Child." I looked forward to the day that I could have my own children and give them cookies and milk and yellow balloons. I think that song, along with the example of my mom and other great women in my life, inspired me to develop a "Mother Heart." I love my children more than life itself and I try to teach them, give them opportunities to grow and to develop their testimonies and talents. My "Mother Heart" extends beyond my own immediate family - to my nieces and nephews, the students at school, Cub Scouts, Primary children, neighbors, friends, etc. I think the world would be a wonderful place if we could strive to develop our "Mother Hearts" and care and love a little more.
