A Mother's Prayer

Dear Lord,
It's such a hectic day, with little time to stop and pray,for life's been anything but clam, since You called me to be a mom....

Running errands, matching socks, building dreams with matching blocks, bathing , cleaning and finding shoes and all those things that young ones lose, fitting lids on bottled bugs, wiping tears and giving hugs, a stack of last week's mail to read - So where's the quiet time I need?

Yet as I go to bed each night, my heart is filled with true love's light as I take one last peek, I see, this treasure You have given me - God's own sweet blessing sleeping there, The answer to a Mother's Prayer.
