In Her Own Words

Last night while tucking Kendall in bed, I told her it was time to say her prayers.  Typically she says the old "Now I lay me down to sleep..." prayer that I said as a kid.  Both kids have stuffed animals they received as infants that say that prayer so it was easy to learn.

I assumed that she'd just start on her own because she's now old enough that she doesn't often need prompting.  I couldn't have been more shocked when she closed her eyes (and yes, she's like her brother and puts her hands over her eyes too.  Why?  I don't know.) and said:

Thank you God to Mommy.

Thank you God to Daddy.

Thank you God to Ra Ra.

Thank you God to Sissy.

Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen...AAAAAmen!

I just love the innocence of little ones and how they speak right from their hearts.
