Jackson (2 1/2 years old) and I were praying for our lunch the other day. We've been encouraging Jackson to say a prayer, but often times at meals he has a hard time not eating a bite or two before he prays. This particular day he was having a peanut butter sandwich and before we prayed he began to take it apart. I quickly reminded him that we needed to pray before we eat and also encouraged him to not take apart his sandwich as it would make a mess of his hands. His prayer went something like this:
Dear Jesus,
Thank you for Mommy and apples and carrots and thank you that I didn't get peanut butter on my hands.
Amen
So sweet. The boys sure look a lot alike in the new pics on your side bar.
ReplyDeleteI wish Lilly cared if she got messy when she ate. She's really into destroying all her food before it goes into her mouth, and it sure does make a huge mess. We're trying to work with her on this.
