A Mother's Prayer

God grant me the serenity
to accept this child as they are; 

courage to change the next diaper;
and wisdom to know why the crying won't stop

 
Living one tired day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time; 



Accepting hardships as the pathway to a nap;
Taking, as He did, this precious child
as they are, not as I would have;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;



 
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with my family.

Forever in the next.





Amen.
