Mother's Covers

'When you were small
And just a touch away.
I covered you with blankets
Against the cool night air.

But now you are tall
And out of reach,
I fold my hands
And cover you in prayers.'

As our children grow and move on in life, it is the fact that I still have little ones at home that continues to remind me of how quickly the time goes and how little time we have at home with our precious children.

It reminds me that I need to ALWAYS continue to commit them to God and be conscientious in my daily offering of them to His care.

For when all is said and done we can only teach and guide them, and then when they leave our home and care to pursue other paths, we pray that what we have taught will continue to uphold them as they continue to grow and that they always rely on God for strength and courage to live by their convictions.

Blessings to you and your homes,
