parenting prayer


oh give me patience when wee hands

tug at me with their small demands

and give me gentle and smiling eyes

keep my lips from hasty replies

and let not weariness, confusion or noise, 

obscure my vision of life's fleeting joys

so when in years to come, my house is still

no bitter memories, it's room may fill. ♥
