A Mother's Prayer

Oh give me patience when tiny hands
Tug at me with their small demands.
And give me gentle and smiling eyes;
Keep my lips from sharp replies.
And let not fatigue, confusion or noise
Keep me from sharing my child's new found joys.
And most of all, help me to look above
When at times I think I have no love.
For You have promised to bear my load
As these precious lives unfold.

Natalie Can Sit Up on Her Own

I witnessed yet another of Natalie's milestone this morning. She have managed to sit up on her own. To do this, she rolled over from her back to her tummy and with her head, she pushed herself up to a sitting position. I now truly understand the meaning of joy!
