A Poem to Mothers

          I was on the Internet today and I stumbled across this poem. The author is unknown. I think that no matter your religious beliefs (if any) that it definitely describes how motherhood can be at times. It brought a smile to my face, here's to hoping it will bring one to yours too. Motherhood is definitely the best thing that has happened to me in my life thus far!

Dear Lord

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 on me to be a mom

Running errands, matching socks

Building dreams with building 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 weeks mail to read

So where's the quiet time I need?

Yet when I steal a minute, 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 stop to kiss

That precious smile
