The Sweetest Prayer

Tonight at dinner, my Sweet Boy said his first ever prayer all alone (with prompt.) I was so proud of him that I felt I needed to share this with all who know and love him so well.

And I quote.

"Ear Od. Thank you Mommy, Day, Daydi, Hay, Charli, Say. Mommy, Daydi, Day, Hay. Ou si, fin, sunsine, hot dog. Jes mame. Ahhmen."

Translation: "Dear God, thank you for Mommy, Daddy, Baby, Hayden, Carli, Sandy. Mommy, Daddy, Baby, Hayden. Outside, friend, sunshine, hotdog. In Jesus name, Amen."

You know, we truly should be like the little children. As he prayed, his hands were folded, his head bowed and his little brown eyes closed. He was not looking at me for guidance. He knew what he meant, and it seemed that he was certain that God knew as well. The look on his little face was so peaceful (so my eyes weren't closed.....)

This has truly been one of the sweetest moments I have ever witnessed in my life. It will forever be etched and ingrained in my memory and in my soul.

Good Night.
