Reena saying her own prayer

Reena has been saying her own prayers this week. We knew she was getting very close to being able to say her own prayers when I would take her to the nursery at the gym and she would put out the toy plates and food, then folds her arms and pray before she pretends to eat it. But this week has been most wonderful to have her say her own prayers. Every time that I try to help she tells me "No mama no, I've got it" and then moves on and today, she said a complete prayer without stopping to think of words and afterward we just embraced her with kisses. How wonderful it is to see your little one grow up and learn so much. It's exciting to see my little girl becoming the person that we hope she would become. It's wonderful!

Avery's started saying hers recently too. I agree, it's totally fun. Hers get a little funny sometimes - blessing the leprechauns, for example. And sometimes she just rambles on about what we did that day, but I guess that's essentially what it's supposed to be right?

Haha that is hilarious. Reena's are usually the same thing. Bless the food even though we're going to bed that sort of thing.
