"I was searching on the internet and found your GoMommyGo. This is just what I was looking for. I am raising my 2 grand sons now 5 and 6 years old. The 5 year old has a lot of behavior problems. I thank God I found GoMommyGo. Thank you " ~Susan H.

"If people had to pay for what Mothers do, the world would be bankrupt!"
David Elliott, father of seven

Maybe that's how the world got into all this trouble financially lately! (Now that we're all having to PAY for what mother's used to do for FREE, huh?)!
Just a thought. What do YOU think? Hey - there's still lots of love in the world. Just look at your kids.

"The great man is he who does not lose his childlike heart."
– Mencius

"If we are to reach real peace in this world... we shall have to begin with children."
– Mohandas Gandhi

I dedicate this website to mom's (and their kids) everywhere! We need all the support we can get! And for you DAD's out there who do their part, and some who even have to fulfill the job of 'mom', too - my respect goes out to you! The World NEEDS YOU!

Being a parent is the hardest job in the world. That's why I'm assembling all the tips on Mothering I've learned over the years to help during the times it can be overwhelming. Like, everyday, maybe?

One day when I was discouraged about the messes I had to conquer, I thought about Mother Teresa, and all the hard work she did. That's when I realized - if she could take on a big job like that, how could I complain?

"LOVE IS A MESSY BUSINESS!" -David Elliott, father of seven

Doing anything in a spirit of exploration, curiosity and fun is where the real creativity lies. And all creativity makes a mess of one sort or another. You can't avoid it if you want your kids to learn, grow and become what they were meant to be. The PLUS side is that YOU are having an impact on the future through the work you do with your children! Nothing is more important than that! Dr. Dobson said, "No success in the world can compensate for failure at home." He was RIGHT! Enjoy your kids in spite of the messes - while you still CAN - and you'll still have a relationship with them long after they are gone and your house is finally clean.
