Dads, you know that inspiring anecdote about Suzanne Wesley – how she prayed with her apron over her head and let her ten children know that when they found her like that, she was praying and wasn’t to be disturbed?

If you ever hear a busy mom talking about how difficult it is for her to find time to pray, refrain from using this story to advise her.

That is, unless (a) you’ve spent many days home alone with your kids, and/or (b) you’ve spent many days praying under an apron.
