On this ordinary Tuesday night, I learned an extraordinary lesson through my toddler's bedtime prayer. After all the lights were out, and she crawled into her "big girl" bed, as usual I asked if she wanted to say the bedtime prayer (see below to learn more about a simple method we've used to teach our toddler about prayer.) Some nights, she asks me to pray, but tonight she took the lead. It went something like this: Dear Jesus, thank you for today. Because this is the day that the Lord has made!!! [said enthusiastically, to the tune of a song she learned at church] Thank you for loving us. And for the splash pad with my friend Amy today. And my school today. And the pond with momma. And Grandma's house today. And for all the newwww books at the library today. God thank you for helping us be kind and obey. And listen. And to don't hit people. In Jesus name. Ameeeeennnnnn. That sounds like quite a day, right?! The splash pad, the pond, Grandma...
