My husband and I were both brought up in the Christian Science Sunday School, and we are now very thankful that our four children are enjoying this same opportunity. We have experienced many demonstrations of the blessings of Christian Science in all aspects of our family life.
I should like to relate one experience that has meant a great deal to us as a family. Five years ago a very heavy object fell onto our youngest son's foot. He was in his stocking feet. My husband and I rushed to him when we heard his screams. I picked him up and began declaring the truth aloud to him, as we are taught to do in Christian Science.
As soon as his screaming subsided, he wanted to see the foot that was hit. Very quickly my husband replied that he didn't think the child had to look at it and said: "See, Mother doesn't feel that she has to look at it. You don't have to look either. I will clean it up, and you two just go on declaring the truth."
