"Children are a gift from the Lord; they are a reward from Him. Children born to a young man are like arrows in a warrior's hand. How joyful is the man whose quiver is full of them." Psalm 127:3-5

A Parent's Prayer

A Parent's Prayer
Oh give me patience when wee hands
Tug at me with their small demands
And give me gentle smiling eyes.
Keep my lips from hasty replies
And let not weariness, confusion or noise
Obscure my vision of lifes fleeting joys.
So when in years to come my house is still
No bitter memories its rooms may fill.
Amen.

I stole this from a friend who posted it on facebook. What a good prayer for frazzled moms.
