A statement that I understand more with each passing day and one that I wish I understood more when I was still in their home. Oh even with all their flaws, had I heeded the principles they taught me how much more blessed, less stressed, and without regret my life would have been!

“Hear, my son, your father’s instruction,
    and forsake not your mother’s teaching,
9 for they are a graceful garland for your head
    and pendants for your neck.”  Proverbs 1:8, 9

Thank you Mom and Dad for still being advisors to my life. I think I listen a little better these days.
