We have been teaching Cortney to say new things in the prayer, depending on what is going on, so it is not the same prayer every time. I guess it is working because she gave this prayer for breakfast:
"Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank you for Pop tarts (what she had for breakfast). thank you for mommy and Cortney, and honey (her bear). And thank you that daddy got girl pull ups this time! In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen"
I really had to hold myself together during the prayer. Last time I sent Chris to the store to get pull ups (she only uses them at quiet time and bed time now) for some reason he got the boy ones. She always had this look on her face that she didn't like them very much. And joking with Chris I said "What did the blue give it away?" Oh well, she finally made it through the last one last night, and we showed her the new bag of pink ones, and she was very excited about it!
So blessed that she is learning to pray for what is really important to her! Plus it is just a super cute story!
