“A pleasant morning. Saw my classmates Gardner, and Wheeler. Wheeler dined, spent the afternoon, and drank Tea with me. Supped at Major Gardiners, and engag'd to keep School at Bristol, provided Worcester People, at their ensuing March meeting, should change this into a moving School, not otherwise. Major Greene this Evening fell into some conversation with me about the Divinity and Satisfaction of Jesus Christ. All the Argument he advanced was, 'that a mere creature, or finite Being, could not make Satisfaction to infinite justice, for any Crimes,' and that 'these things are very mysterious.'

“Mothers Are So Wonderful
We are the ones who carry babies for months
We feel anxious about their safety
We do our best to keep them healthy
We worry the most when they are thirsty
We feed them when hungry
We are the ones who look after their wellbeing
We ensure our kids鈥� lives are worthwhile
We find ways to provide optimum care
We are patient to see them grow older
Yes, they always run to us for cover
We are the ones who are called names
When things go wrong with our children
But given no credit when they excel in life
We create conducive environments all the time
We take the bullet for our loved ones
We brace raging storms on their behalf
We are the ones who walk miles
In search of better opportunities for our offspring
We sleep very late and wake up too early
We guide them to achieve great things
We say prayers for them to prosper
God was right to entrust women with childbearing because Mothers are so wonderful”
