A Mom's Prayer!

Dear Lord, it's such a hectic day, 
With little time to stop and pray, 
For Life's been anything but calm, 
Since You called me to be a mom - 
Running errands, matching socks, 
Building dreams with matching blocks, 
Cooking, cleaning and finding shoes
 And other stuff that children 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, when I steal a moment, Lord,
 Just at the sink or ironing board, 
To ask the blessings of Your grace,
I see then, in my small one's face,
 That You have blessed me all the while- 
And I stoop to kiss... That precious smile.
