They joys of parenting

Ok, let me just ath I really thought my heart was going to explode with love and joy tonight.
"Why?" you ask.
Well, I am glad you did. I got to experience listening to my son pray for the very first time. Every night at bedtime we all climb into his bed (he has a full size bed), and we read a story. Right now we are reading Prince of Egypt. It is a long book so we read a few pages each night. After we read pray. I always ask him if he would like to pray. He usually says no, so I pray. Well, tonight I asked him and his response was, "I am not any good at praying." I used a technique that my mom told me used with my niece Sydney. She told me to have him repeat after me. I asked him if he would like to do it, and he said sure. As I prayed and was thanking God for people, he would repeat it. He even started adding people himself. It gave me such great joy to hear it. He is still really new to all of this prayer stuff, so it really is a big deal. This just blessed his mom and I so much.
