For all the mothers  

Posted by Sarah

out there and maybe some fathers. I found this prayer in one of my prayer books and I wanted to share it with everyone.

In My Laundry Room

As I carefully fold my sheets,
Smoothing out the wrinkles,
Bringing corner to corner . . .
Lovingly, I think of You, my Lord.

The pile of laundry seemingly grows beside me,
As I strive to keep up
With this never-ending chore.

But, in my laundry room . . .
I thank You, my dear Lord,
For loving me and allowing me
To serve You in my family.
*From Catholic Prayer Book for Mothers by Donna-Marie Cooper OBoyle

I really like the prayer Sarah! I'm going to have to tape it to my dryer this afternoon. My pile of laundry really is growing, Matt just got home:)
