Sometimes the simple words of another person can shed such light.<br />There is no doubt the way you spend your days are in fact a prayer. Love all of your celebrations, big and small. I'm so glad you got to visit with your mom.<br />By the way, can I borrow Peyton?Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15035231628115404437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-830473372238505362.post-28601772758474956912015-02-20T06:59:28.839-08:002015-02-20T06:59:28.839-08:00What a beautiful reflection on Lent, Billie Jo.

It's so easy to get caught up in the big things that I'm not doing instead of taking advantage of the many opportunities I have to give of myself in little ways throughout my day.

I was telling her about my prayer life and how I wasn't happy with it. And she said the same thing as your conversation. And they are both right, ya know? Life with children is prayer. Daily, breathing in and out, encouraging, reaching out and even all the mundane daily tasks. It's what God has called you to right now and it's the most beautiful, amazing prayer ever. Love ya!

I know that our grocery store chain offers things like knife skills and cake decorating and some more advanced courses. And you just sign up for one class at a time. She's such a talent in the kitchen she may not need the classes, but it sure seems like something she'd enjoy.
