I love that you are learning about the importance of prayer! You know "God is Great..." along with many new prayers you've learned at day care, and "Now I lay me...", but recently you have started saying your own prayers and it melts my heart. While we were on vacation there were two days of total rain and you just didn't understand why we couldn't make it stop. Your Grammy told you that we should pray and ask God to stop the rain and give us a sunny day for the beach. After you prayed with Grammy you said, "We should call Aunt P and tell her to pray too!" So, you called Aunt P, shared your dilemma and your wish for the rain to stop. The next day was sunny and bright! While at the beach we talked about God answering prayers and that we should also thank God when he does good things for us, so that is just what we did! We also called Aunt P to thank her for praying for us, because it worked!
About a week after we got home I watched as you leaned on our tall chairs, folded your hands, bowed your head and talked to God. I'm not sure what you said, but I'm thrilled that you are beginning to understand the importance of sharing your thoughts with your heavenly father because he loves you even more than I do! (**that's hard to believe, huh??**)
Keep it up, buddy! I'm proud of you!
Love, Mommy
