A couple of favorite parts:

"Now, breathe.
And when you breathe, remember the source of the gift of all breathing."

"Clean your room.
May you always have a home: a refuge from storm, a gathering-place for safety, for comfort."

"And you are here to bless."

Mom, you want this book like yesterday.
