Our children can be such good examples for us. Last night after we had gone to sleep, Jordan came in and said to me, "Mom I am scared and having bad dreams. Can we say a pray so I can sleep." I had him climb up on our bed and sat up. I asked him if he wanted to pray or whether he wanted me to. He asked me to say the prayer. I said a prayer and asked Heavenly Father to help him sleep with good dreams. When we finished I gave him a hug and kiss and he jumped down from the bed and went back to his room. We didn't hear from him for the rest of the night.
Then this morning, the boys noses seemed to be a little stuffy and I was encouraging them to use a kleenex and blow their nose. Instead, Jordan asked Colin if he would pray that their noses wouldn't be stuffy. Colin said, "Thank you for our stuffy noses and not be stuffy anymore."
It is great to see that the boys have a basic understanding of prayer and the important role it can play in our lives.
