Workin’ Girl Themed Weekend – Take Two!

February 28, 2009 By Stephanie

workin-girl-2The highly anticipated Workin’ Girl Themed Weekend is finally here…with over $900 worth of giveaways (and some excellent resources as well).

Stay tuned through Monday for fun…and free stuff for fortunate winners.

I’ll kick off the weekend with this little poem I found about motherhood:

 

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
Gitting 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 seen then, in my small one’s face
That you have blessed me
All the while
And I stop to kiss
That precious smile

    glad you are feeling better and the poem is perfect. Now I started from the end and worked my way forward so I’m caught up and I think I have a little smile to go kiss before I get to work!
