**don't know the author, it's just a plaque I have hanging in my house. I try to read it every day, it helps me to keep things in perspective...just wanted to share**

Give me patience, Lord, when little hands tug at me with ceaseless small demands
Give me gentle words and smiling eyes, to keep my lips from hasty sharp replies.
Let not fatigue, confusion, or noise obscure my visions of life's fleeting joys
So when in years to come my house is still, beautiful memories it's rooms may fill.

That is gooooooooood, Deb. I see a new sig coming up! :thumbsup: :nod:
