“I am happiest at my ‘workplace’! Working with children, deceloping their skills and talents, striving to show them an example in different life situations, nurturing them with love and a pure heart — this is happiness for me.”🥰
Day 17/19 “The hearts of children are extremely pure and simple. A person’s heart must be like a child’s, pure and free from all contamination.” “The more the mirror (of the heart) is clear and pure the greater will the rays and the bounties of the Sun of Truth show forth from it.” – ‘Abdu’l-Bahá

"Motherhood is a bit like being Robin Hood! You are always alert and ready to defend the little munchkins! It's stressful and tiring but the most rewarding 'job' you could ever do.

Jacinta was 7, Francisco was 9 and Lúcia was 10 at the time.

The Capelinha das Aparições (Chapel of the Apparitions) marks the spot where the Virgin Mary allegedly appeared in 1917.

On the centenary of the first apparition Pope Francis canonized two children — the […]
“One day we found an old home movie picturing my partner as a small child at the lake Balaton. I wasn’t sure at the time whether I wanted to have kids or not, but he was so super cute that I got immediately persuaded. ‘I would love to have a child like you used to be.’ – I said to him. My wish came true: my son is the exact replica of my husband. Looks aside, it is fascinating how unique he is with personality traits that are apparent at a very early age. He is an amazing little human […]
