What Eieo Prays For - a Gift of a Little Sister

EIEO Prays for EIEA

Every time we see Eieo praying,
Hear him saying, wishing and hoping
 Soon a little sister on Mommy’s tummy
… such a beautiful baby, a gift for me and daddy.

In tears, hubby and I would kiss him and pray the same,
And yes, Eieo wants Eiea to be her name,
… baby shower, everything is ready,
all your stuffs, even your soon-to-be favorite teddy.

Eieo’s short prayers and never ending wishes that soon,
we’ll paint our sanctuary with rainbows, stars, sun & moon
simply make mom and dad, happy and proud…
for receiving life’s greatest blessings from our Almighty God.

Adding our home with another bundle of joy,
A baby girl please… an answered prayer of our little boy,
Wishing that soon we’ll be laughing and playing with our two kids,
And for now, a precious daughter is all we need.


E-I-E-A
To GOD be the Glory!

Please come down, little angel. 
Your mom, dad and brother are all waiting for you, 
so excited to see and kiss you. 
Eiea, please come home.

Lots of love,
Mommy Mai

A Prayer of a Mother and a Wife


To all moms and wives out there: Let's include this warm, sincere and beautiful prayer in our daily routines. Let's keep our lines open; communicating to/with GOD is a perfect thing to start our day right, well, the way HE wants us to. My fellow moms and wives, let's whisper one now...

Compassionate and loving God,
thank you for giving me the opportunity
and the challenge of being a mother.
I know that this is not an easy task -
to rear children and build a home.

Please help me when life seems too difficult,
when I lose my patience, understanding and generosity
toward my husband and my children.

Grant me the spirit of love, peace and joy
so that when I'm doing my daily routine, though heavy they may be,
these virtues may give me the strength to lighten my day.

Help me to be always cheerful and serene
so that my children and husband may look forward
to coming home again after school and after the day's work.

Dear God,
my constant prayer is my concern for my children,
that they may become successful in life,
able to serve their countrymen and women,
but more importantly that they may grow up to be
Your faithful children.
Amen.

A Family Christmas Prayer


OUR Loving Father,
help us remember the birth of Jesus – that we may share in the song of the angels, the gladness of the shepherds, and worship of the wise men.

Close the door of hate and open the door of love all over the world. Let kindness come with every gift and good desires with every greeting. Deliver us from evil by the blessing which Christ brings, and teach us to be merry with clear hearts.

May the Christmas morning make us happy to be thy children, and Christmas evening bring us to our beds with grateful thoughts, forgiving and forgiven, for Jesus' sake.

This we ask through Christ, our Lord. Amen.
