Tot Talk: Prayers

"Kristiana, do you have any prayers to offer?"

"Yes, I thank God for rainbows!" 

I add, "Oh, good.  Rainbows are God's promise to never destroy humanity again to punish us.  It is a sign of hope for us."

"Annie, do you have any prayers to offer?"  Annie simply looks up and nods her head up and down a couple of times.  Then she makes some barely audible humming and cooing sounds through her pacifier. 

"Lucy, do you have any prayers to offer?"  I am making a habit of asking our three month old for her prayers so no one forgets that she is a person and one day will offer her prayers aloud.  

Kristiana bursts in, "Lucy has prayers.  She thanks God for boobies." 

"I'm sure she does."
