Isn't it amazing that at such young ages children can understand the reason for prayer? It is pure joy to listen to what each child is thankful for and what is on their heart and mind. I just love hearing each of our kiddos pray their own individual prayers. The past few nights have been some of the sweetest prayers that have been said. Below are just little snippets of their prayers:
Malachi - "Thank you for the bunk beds that we'll get in a few days" (um, more than just a few, buddy!)
"Please let us move to Kansas City so we don't have to spend a long time in the car to see
Grammie and Papa. Then we could ride our bikes, or walk, or drive the car there." (he's been
on a kick recently about living up in KC. When given the choice to live in the town where most of
his friends are or KC, he chooses KC because that's where family is)
Isaiah - "We love our Mommy, she is the bestest" (this was so wonderful because today was just one of
those days when mothering didn't come easy)
Samara - "Thank baby, Amen!" (that was the extent of her prayer, but it was heart felt)
God, thank you for my 3 little blessings. They truly inspire me to be a better mommy and a better example of what a Godly woman and mother is.
Love, love, love it! And you are an inspiring mother. It is a delight to hear the hearts of others. Thank you for sharing. I, for one, am with Malachi's KC move. And I second Isaiah's sentiment. What a bond Miss Samara has with her baby:)
