Tonight for dinner Sara wanted to say the dinner prayer. She never says it on her own just once in a while will repeat after us. Tonight she did it all on her own and it was so beautiful it made me teary eyed. It went something like this:
Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank you for food, thank you for mommy and daddy, thank you for the park, bless mommy and daddy, thank you for my nap, in Jesus Christ Amen.
Little children are so precious they remind us of how simple things are and how grateful we should be for the small things. It is so wonderful to see your child saying a prayer. On the hard days I will try to remember the small things like this and know at least I have taught her a very a important lesson such as prayer.
