Inspiring Quotes from Shontell:
“I had forgotten to pray about the stages and decisions to make as a parent. I was parenting retroactively, praying after the fact, after I had already made the decision.”
“Your legacy is reflected in your everyday choices to love in small ways.”
“Our example becomes our children’s norm.”
“We aren’t to be shaming our children over the things they do wrong.”
