Bedtime Prayers

A true conversation in our home, while saying goodnight prayers with Taylor.

Taylor - "Esus....nana. Esus...nana."
Kristi - "Are you asking Jesus for Nana to come visit you?"
Taylor - "Yes"
Kristi - (prays for Nana and Granddad to come visit)
Taylor - "Esus...bye-bye. Esus....bye-bye."
Kristi - "Are you telling Jesus you had to say goodbye to Nana and Granddad?"
Taylor - "Nah. Dog-dog."
Kristi - "Are you telling Jesus you had to say goodbye to the dog-dog?"
Taylor - "Yes"
Kristi - (Tries to explain to 21 month-old that Jesus will reward us for saying goodbye to our dog-dog because we were obeying him. Proceeds to pray that Jesus would give us another dog someday).

I love the pure, innocent prayers from a child's heart.
