Carys Prays

Life has been busy. I've been reading others' blogs but not posting on my own. I've been thinking about this post for awhile since I read something on DeEtta's blog about one of her little darling's prayers.

Carys almost always wants to be the one who prays before meals now. This is how it goes:

"Dear God, thank you love for me." Interpretation - thank you for loving me. Then she begins to talk about whatever happened to her that day or whatever's on her mind. Last night she said, "Don't touch the stick. It's hard." She was trying to put the ClearPlay USB stick into the DVD player for the family night movie. She couldn't get it in, and we fussed at her and told her not to touch it. Some day it might be "I swing and slide." You get the drift. Then she finishes, "Jesus' Name. Amen." Sometimes she remembers to say thanks for the food, sometimes not. It cracks us all up as we try to listen closely and hear what she's saying. But I think she's right on target. She's just talking to God!
