Midnight Prayers

So, usually when one of the kids wakes up in the middle of the night, I can't go back to sleep right away. I have learned that this is when I have the most meaningful time with God. I start to pray and the house is so peaceful and quiet that I feel so close to God. I secretly thank God that I am awake and able to spend such quality time with Him. Instead of laying awake wondering what I need to do the next morning, I am still and I pray.
