Kind Words from Clients

Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.  As arrows in the hand of a mighty man: so are children of the youth.  Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them:  they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate. ~Psalm 127:3-5
