Blessings 365: Day 81: A mother's prayer

Last Wednesday (yep, March 21st....I've already admitted I'm behind on blog posts!! lol) I got to call my mom.  I love to hear her voice and be able to chat uninterrupted for a little bit (not sharing her on the skype screen with the children! big grin).

As we were getting off I said, "Hey, mom, will you and your ladies pray that our power comes back on?"  It had been off almost the whole day and it was 116° as we were talking (in case you're wondering...that's HOT!).  Power had been off the night before and it was a long hot night and we REALLY needed a good night of rest.  Of course mom said, "Sure!" and I knew she would pray.


That night as I read outloud to the kiddos and we prayed that power would come back on, I knew mom was praying too.


Around 10:00 pm our power came back on!  Fans came back on!  Coolness blew into our beds and we slept peacefully all night!  Right before heading to bed I texted my mom to let her know that God had answered our prayers with a YES!!
