The Luckiest Mom in the World!

Happy Mother's Day to all the mother's, grandmothers and godmother's! It is only 11 a.m. and I am already overwhelmed with the blessings of the day. I slept late, got served breakfast in bed with balloons and flowers, and had all 3 kids and Bob snuggled up with me for an hour while I ate. My Mother's Day present is coming in a few weeks in the form of a big beautiful kitchen sink that will be large enough to bathe my babies in - at least Annie and the new baby! Bob is off grocery shopping with the kids while I shower and get dressed so that we can go spend the afternoon with my beautiful Mom, sister-in-law, brothes and nieces and nephews - and Bob and the kids , of course. So I'm off to enjoy the rest of the day!

The Chefs!
Mommy and her babies sharing breakfast in bed - check out Annie trying to pilfer my breakfast!

I'm ending with a prayer that Bob and I have always loved! It reminds us of the main responsibility we have as parents!

Happy Mother's Day!

Parents' Prayer

O Father, our hearts are filledwith a great happiness.

For you have seen fit to bless us with children.

You have sent us your own little angels to love and protect.
We are aware of the great responsibility that is ours and we are humble.

We realize the honor you have bestowed upon us and we are grateful.

Great that we may be ever patient and loving,

living in such a way as to set a shining example for our little ones.

And as we seek to set those tiny feet upon the paths of righteousness,

be ever with us.

May our home be a place of love and harmony where your Spirit is ever present.

And may our children find you in each activity of our family life.
Bless us, we pray,and walk beside us through all our days together. Amen.
