Dear God

Cameron told me during bath time tonight that he wanted to "Dear God."

"Dear God,
Thank you for Ian.
Thank you for froggy.
Thank you for truck.
Amen."
(The frog and truck are bath toys.)

I prompted him a little. "How about thank you for Mommy?"

"Thank you for Mommy. Amen."

"How about thank you for Daddy?"

"Thank you for Daddy.
Thank you for Mimi-o (Grandma).
Thank you for Mimi-Mimi (Great-Grandma).
Thank you for Uncle Zac.
Amen!"

"Dear God"

My little man loves to pray. He'll start by telling whoever is around to shut their eyes. Once he is satisfied that no one is peeking, he'll say a big drawn out, "Dear God." I wish I could adequately describe the way he says it, but believe me when I say it makes me laugh every time. :)

Then comes the "thank you for"s. Sometimes there is only one item, and then a quick "Amen." Other times there are ten people or things he wants to thank God for.

I intend to share some of his daily prayers here. You just never know what you might hear coming out of this kid's mouth.
