The first First Mother, Mary Ball Washington, retired each evening with a religious book. In Fredericksburg, Virginia, she had a favorite "meditation rock", which was said to be her favorite retreat for reading and prayer. At her request, she was buried a few steps from Meditation Rock.
George Washington said of her, "My mother was the most beautiful woman I ever saw. All I am I owe to my mother. I attribute my success in life to the moral, intellectual and physical education I received from her."
Mothers, what you do matters. Let your children see you doing daily private time with God. Avoid ostentation but do set the example.
