Tonight at dinner, Canah wanted to pray. So we bowed our heads and he proceeded to pray an original prayer. It went like this: "Lord, thank you for the chickens, and please touch my boo-boo, and thank you for the pirates who don't do anything." Dinner was chicken, he had hurt his foot 30 minutes earlier, and I bought the Pirate movie last night for him. What's remarkable about this is that he is beginning to originate prayers rather than recite prayers he has heard and memorized from other people, and specifically, movies (3-2-1 Penguins has some cute ones!) for example. We feel very blessed ...
