The Parent's Prayer

Dear God,

Thank you for my little one,

I know we will have lots of fun.

Help me to be firm and wise

and see things through my child's eyes.

Give me courage and patience too

so I'll know the right things to do.

Please show me what I need to know

so I can help my child grow.

Thank you for this life you've shared

trusting me to take great care.

Help me please to always see

the blessing you have given me!
