Takeaways

Teaching virtues to children from a young age is important for their development and can help them grow into effective and fruitful individuals.
Maria Marianyagam's board book series, which focuses on virtues like hope and courage, provides a fun and accessible way for children to learn about and practice virtues.
Parents can engage with the series by reading the books with their children, using the discussion questions and activities provided on Maria's website, and modeling virtuous behavior themselves.
Female friendships are important for women and can provide support, affirmation, and a unique understanding of shared experiences.
It is important to be reflective about the friendships in our lives, invest time and energy into maintaining them, and bring any struggles or concerns to prayer.
