Mother's Prayer

It is said that a Mother’s prayer is the most powerful on Earth. God and heaven pauses to listen to her prayers.. after all a mother is appointed by God to look after the children until they can stand on their own. I have always believed this.. especially when I left the kids with the maid, when they were sick, when they were going to appear for their exams and even at quiet moments while they are sleeping – I say a short prayer for their well being since whatever efforts I may put, I can achieve nothing without the help from the Almighty.

So I guess as mothers it is our duty to pray for our children like our own mother has done and no child is too old for our prayers.

Vacation

My leave is approved and now I can plan it officially. 36 days is a short time but still… As usual we have many plans, but will have to wait and see. If the rains are severe then it will be vacationing at home only, which is also not a problem. I would love getting up late, having breakfast at leisure, read the paper, chat, then slowly prepare for lunch etc. etc. Then there is the excitement of shopping too. The kids are leaving early to stay with their grand parents who are eagerly counting the days.
