Last night while putting Jaden to bed, he said he wanted to say a goodnight prayer. Then he folded his hands and told me that his eyes were closed and he was ready.
Me: Dear God
Jaden: Dear God
Me: Thank you for my family
Jaden: Thank you for my family
Me: Thank you for my friends
Jaden: Thank you for my family
Me: and thank …
Jaden: no Mom! It’s my turn! Dear God, I love you. I love you. Dear God, I love you God! And I love salads. Please help me with my manners so I can make new friends. Amen.
I was so proud of him … saying his own prayer. And how simple, but he knew exactly what he wanted to tell the big man upstairs.
This has GOT to be the cutest thing I have heard in awhile…I love that little guy!
