Just a thought

This is just me, writing about something that just crossed my mind, take it or leave it. I was reading the news, and came across a celebrity that found out she was pregnant, and then decided to get married. What is up with that. What happened to getting married first, and then having children???? Okay, I am trying not to be judgemental, but I think some people just have things backwards. Women having children with their *boyfriends*??!!??--oh well, that is just a thought I had---okay I am done.

Lady of the house said...: Hello, Julieann! In a similar vein, I listen to a radio station that plays 30's, 40's, and 50's music. One day the song "You Send Me" by Sam Cooke was on. There is a line that says "Now I find myself wanting to marry you and take you home." My husband commented that it would be the other way around if this song came out nowadays!

I do identify with what you are saying.; Monday, October 2, 2006 at 10:21:00 AM PDT

Mother's Prayer

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 week's 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 them in my small one's face,
That you have blessed me all the while,
As I stop to kiss that precious smile.
