sometimes it hard....

the constant day to day demands of 3 busy children, meals to be made, clothes to be washed. I sometimes find myself lost in it all. It is hard to keep the spiritual perspective of parenting in my mind when I get lost in all things that need to be done ..... so just when I needed it, I came across one of my favorite verses which I read and automatically felt better. It reminds me that my job as a mother is truly the most important and precious thing I can ever do.

Into my will
Let there pour strength,
Into my feeling
Let there flow warmth,
Into my thinking
Let there shine light,
That I may nurture this child
With enlightened purpose,
Caring with heart's love
And bringing wisdom
Into all things.

Rudolf Steiner
