Ok, not to detract from the serious power and need for prayer

But....

At first glance I thought one of the intentions was for b**bs!

I need a nap. I'm so sleep deprived from Phoebe's growth spurt that I'm seeing nothing else!

Paula,
I think this is a great prayer list! I'm inspired to come up with something similar. So often I tuck a little piece of paper with a prayer intention written on it away somewhere, expecting to remember, then I forget! I need something big like this. It would be helpful for our dinner time prayers with the family too!

That's very nice Paula! I bought a $1.00 journal at the Michael's dollar spot to put our prayer requests and it sits by the phone, in the kitchen, close to the dinner table. I was doing like Becky too by trying to remember and I wanted a central location and something to see regularly. Plus I like going back (and with the kids esp.) to see how prayers are answered and sometimes differently from what we expect.

I REALLY like it...of course, my reasons may be a bit self-centered. Know that you rank high on mine as well, dear friend.

I love this idea .... so simple and yet so helpful! And I have the perfect spot for one .... I'm thinking chalkboard paint on a shelf-board would just about suit our needs ... right by our family altar in the dining room.

Brilliant, Paula! Thanks for posting.

That's really neat. We've been keeping a basket with post-it notes and a pen in it, then drawing the papers out each night before our rosary.

...oh, and I thought the same thing as Martha - yea, Greta's been up a lot during the night too...

I love it because I see it as attractive AND doable. Often I have intentions to make an attractive display and never do which means prayers aren't always at the forefront of my mind either But this... I'm off to my shops Thanks Paula!
