8 SU NOMBRE ES HOY “Somos culpables de muchos errores y faltas, pero nuestro peor crímen es el abandono de los niños, la negligencia de la fuente de vida. Muchas de las cosas que nosotros necesitamos pueden esperar. El niño no puede. Ahora es cuando sus huesos se estan formando, su sangre se esta haciendo y sus sentidos desarrollando. A él no le podemos responder ‘Mañana’, su nombre es ‘Hoy.’” HiS NaME iS TOdaY “We are guilty of many errors and many faults, but our worst crime is abandoning the children, neglecting the fountain of life. Many of the things we need can wait. The child cannot. Right now is the time his bones are being formed, his blood is being made, and his senses are being developed. To him we cannot answer ‘Tomorrow,’ his name is Today.’”
