This is my favorite way to spend the girls naptime. Well, other than taking a nap myself! :)

"O Lord, God of Heaven, the great and awesome God, who keeps his covenant of love with those who love him and obey his commands, let your ear be attentive and your eyes open to hear the prayer your servant is praying before you day and night for your servants, the people of Israel." NEHEMIAH 1:5-6
And my motto for this month should be SHUT UP AND PRAY! Ha!
