Bedtime...


Praying and reading! The folding of the hands and the crossing of the feet crack us up!!!

So tonight before dinner Mallory wanted to pray...usually when she asks to pray she just sits there with her head down and we say, "Amen" after a bit. But tonight after Daddy started she wanted to and said, "Dear Lord"...it brought tears to my eyes...and then Daddy said, "Thank you for..." and Mallory rattled off a list of her favorite people. It was such a neat moment and we pray that every day she learns a little bit more about God and how much He loves her and each one of us. It's like a quote I read the other day:

"With God there is always more unfolding, that which we can glimpse of the divine is always EXACTLY ENOUGH, and NEVER ENOUGH."
~Kathleen Norris
And below is a video of her being silly in her room tonight before bed...I had told her I liked when she said "Dear Lord" at dinner...then she started doing it again, but got really silly...

And here is part of a story for you from Girly Boo...Enjoy...
