Tonight I had already put Tenley in her bed, then remembered to say a prayer with her. She laid there on her "mankie" folding her arms and squinting her eyes. She is always so good to be reverent through a whole prayer. She's been participating with us in prayer for quite some time. I love it.
Tavin has been saying the sweetest prayers this past year. He will volunteer to say the prayer each time with excitement. He always talks in a quiet voice, squinting his eyes and squeezing his body with his arms. His prayers are just the best.
And then there's Trajen who doesn't like to volunteer for prayer and sometimes needs to be prodded. He usually just talks about all the fun stuff he wants to do the next day. But sometimes he will give the sweetest, most thoughtful prayer that brings a tear to my eye.
Once in a while prayer time is pull my hair out time and sometimes we just skip it all together. But it is usually a special time and I love getting to listen to my little one's thoughts.
