"Your child is a light that shines, fuel it with these wonderful words or snuffle it with discouragement. Allow them to illuminate tomorrow with passionate dreams and aspirations. Encourage them to make mistakes and learn to be stronger upon reflection. Always believe, always trust, and always let them fly and fall, and fly again." Lawrence
