My Daily Life As A Wife and Mother: Jesus's Birthday Cake

For Christmas, Alexis made Jesus's Birthday cake:) She did such a nice job!

On a side note, at school one of her spelling words was *PRAISE*. She had to put it in a sentence, she wrote: I praise Jesus, Mary and God:) I was so proud!

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.
