Every night before bed we say prayers with all our girls. We usually go in a circle and each person thanks God for something and says their prayer. D usually thanks God for the day and prays for some school assignment or test. E thanks God for the day and then usually prays for some relationship in her life. I love seeing how each of the girls prays. It gives an insight into their world that we don't usually get to see.
Several weeks ago Zoe was the show-and-tell person at preschool. She took her bear Coco. Ever since that day, her prayer at night as been:
Thank you for Coco. I love her so much and cuddle with her. Amen.
It always brings a smile because she's so sincere in her prayer for Coco.
Lately she's been going impromptu with her prayers. If you want to see the heart of a preschooler, get them to pray. Last night, this was her prayer:
Thank you God for D and E. And D and E, I love them so much. Thank you for my mommy, my daddy and my Zoe. Amen.
Thank you indeed.
