Woman raises the bar in prayer with her kids

With four kids we have gotten complacent in praying one-on-one with them. Everyone goes to bed at different times, and it is nearly impossible to pray together. So my husband prays with our son and puts him to bed while I pray with the girls.
No one has been praying regularly with our oldest son. I decided to raise the bar by praying with each of the kids every day. It has been a real blessing.
Our oldest son has not refused once, but has stopped what he was doing each time to pray with me. It has turned into a special couple of minutes for just the two of us.
This morning, after a tough time finishing homework, I knelt on the kitchen floor to be eye level with our eight year old and prayed before the bus came.
These times will be special times that pass quickly. I know as a Mom they will be things that I treasure in my heart. I hope that my kids will treasure them as well.
Thank you for this opportunity to take time and look at where we are and where we would like to be. It is awesome to be a part of a church that continually helps us to be more of who Christ calls us to be.
