OUT OF THE MOUTHS OF BABES

A Sunday School teacher asked little 6-year-old Johnnie what he thought would make his mother perfect.  Johnnie replied, “She is perfect on the inside, but she needs a little plastic surgery on the outside.”

A MOTHER’S DAY PRAYER
by Helen Steiner Rice

“Our Father in Heaven whose love is divine,
        Thanks for the love of a Mother like mine.
And in Your great mercy look down from above
        And grant my dear Mother the gift of Your love.
And all through the year, whatever betide her,
        Assure her each day that You are beside her.
And, Father in Heaven, show me the way
        To lighten her tasks and brighten her day,
And bless her dear heart with the insight to see
        That her love means more than the world to me.”

 EXCUSE THIS HOUSE!

(Author unknown)

Some houses try to hide the fact that children live there.  Ours boasts of it quite openly.  The signs are everywhere.  For smears are on the windows, little smudges on the doors; I should apologize I guess, for toys are strewn on the floor.
But I sat down with the children and we played, laughed and read.
And if the doorbell doesn’t shine, their eyes will shine instead.
For when at times I’m forced to choose the one job or the other,
I want to be a housewife, but first I’ll be a mother.
