Essence Of The Home
yVHAT the saying “a home ’’ is not a home without children” means to me is that somebody has got to be a child; and whether that child is four or 40 or 90 it doesn’t really matter. Without this childlike quality, the deep instinct to make a place of one’s own with a couple of blankets and a towel-horse if necessary, the whole idea of home is barren.—Penelope Mortimer, mother of six children.
