A Child's Prayer

I just put Erica down and she said her first real prayer. I have to write it down before I forget...

Heavenly Father,

Thank you [for] dada,
Thank you [for] mama,
Thank you [for] Erica,
Thank you [pause...I point at my belly to suggest "baby". She looks at it and decides instead to say] Barney,
Thank you [for] Kayla (our dog),
Thank you [for] food,
Thank you [for] milk,
[I try ending the prayer, but she insists on the very important last line]
Thank you [for] princesses.

oh my gosh that is so adorable!! I LOVE the way she closed her prayer. I can't wait to hear what Raiden has to say one day. I remember my nephew said, "Heavenly Father. Name of Jesus Christ, Amen." haha!

Yay for another girl!
