My Niece's Prayer Tonight


Thank you God for Mommy and Daddy. Thank you for uncle Chris. Thank you for playing dolls with uncle Chris. Thank you for drawing on the sidewalk with uncle Chris. Thank you for the park. Thank you for the pool. Thank you for fun at school. Thank you for gratitude. Thank you for reading the Bible. Thank you for my friends at school. Thank you for...a number of other things.

And this while holding her Ariel doll from Little Mermaid. After finishing her prayer, which were all thank yous, she says, "that was a long prayer, huh?" And then I asked her if she had any favorite songs that she wanted to sing and she sang all of A Whole New World. She sang both parts so when she came to the end she's even singing the echoing part, "a whole new world, a whole new world, that's where we'll be, that's where we'll be..." She's so fun.

Precious! Don't you just love little kids that you can enjoy and then give back to their parents when they start to get angry or smelly?

I think she's coming upon peak fun age where she doesn't require a ton of attention, but she is so fun that you just can't help but give it to her.
