A Parent's Prayer

Published by Family Friend Poems February 2006 with permission of the Author.

Thank you, God, for
The children of mine
Who teach me things
That blow my mind.
They entertain themselves
In the funniest ways.
I pray that the innocence
They possess never goes away.
I pray they will
Grow up and be smart,
And I pray that they will never grow apart.
I pray that they will call home
Whenever they are near a phone.
I pray that they never feel alone.
I hope they turn to you
Through guidance and prayer
And know that you and their parents
Will always be there.

This is exactly my prayer for my two sons and for my upcoming baby. I am really touched by this poem. Love it!!!
I have two sons, one of them is with me and my eldest is with my mom. As much as I would like to have my eldest live with us I can't do so knowing my mom would feel mad or they will miss my son, My son is the first grandchild and the only boy in the family, I'm the eldest among 5 daughters. I'm missing my son based on our status that we are far away from each other. It never stops me from loving my son . While at work I found myself crying the moment I think about my son and it really broke my son. I just let it be this way cause I love my parents, can't afford to be happy while my parents are miserable due to the absence of my son.

I pray this is for my own child and the many children I come in contact with I pray the best for all of them.
