    “If you add a little to a little, and then do it again, soon that little shall be much.”
    —Hesiod (c. 8th century B.C.)

    “Any balance we achieve between adult and parental identities, between children’s and our own needs, works only for a time—because, as one father says, “It’s a new ball game just about every week.” So we are always in the process of learning to be parents.”
