Food For Thought – Aunts & Uncles

You don’t choose your family. They are God’s gift to you, as you are to them-Desmond Tutu

Across the board, from my mother to my father to my aunts and uncles, everybody has always given me a lot of love – Amos Lee

Our most basic institution of family desperately needs help and support from the extended family and the public institutions that surround us. Brothers and sisters, aunts and uncles, grandparents and cousins can make a powerful difference in the lives of children. Remember that the expression of love and encouragement from an extended family member will often provide the right influence and help a child at a critical time – M. Russell Ballard
