• Dec. 3, 2007 - More on prayers

Last night Noah's prayer thanked God for bathrooms, houses, families, toys, Grandmas and Grandpas, sisters... It kinda amazes me how praying comes so naturally to Noah. His sister still has to go down the list and maybe add something different like "please don't let my brother have a stomach bug" at the very end (kinda self preserving don't you think) But I guess you can say she got it answered.... He didn't have a stomach bug.

I can't remember if I have mentioned before that sometimes Noah sings his prayers. I guess like Emily I have always struggled with what or how I should pray. It is so easy to fall into a list of wants and blesses. I feel that God smiles down on Noah when he prays. I know he makes me smile. I am amazed at what all I can learn from Noah when I listen to him pray.
