Doug's Blog: Abigail Adams, Home School Mother

You are in possession of a natural and good understanding and of spirits unbroken by adversity, and untamed with care. Improve your understanding for acquiring useful knowledge and virtue, such as will render you an ornament to society, an honor to your country, and a blessing to your parents and remember you are accountable to your Maker for all your words and actions. (Abigail Adams to son John Quincy)
