Every night before bed Megan and I say prayers together. This started when she was having really bad dreams every night. At first I was the one that always said it while we would hold hands. After a while she decided that she wanted to say the prayer instead. So now we take turns. It basically goes something like this:
"Dear God, Please help Megan's bad dreams go away, so she only has good dreams, so she's not scared. Please God help Megan be a good girl and listen to Mommy and Daddy. Thank you God for Mommy, Daddy, Sam, Megan, and Jack. And thank you for Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Goofy, and Pluto. Amen."
We mix up the middle but the beginning and the thank yous are ALWAYS the same. Lately, though, Megan has been adding a new item into the mix, and it goes a little something like this:
"Please God help Megan to fly."
Megan is hoping to wake up one morning and have wings so that she can fly. And she wants to know why it isn't happening since she prays for it. It is so cute, and so like a 6 year old.
She does get serious about praying though when there is something going on. She prays for Gigi (my grandma) when she is sick. And she prayed for Rick a lot when he was so sick and healing from surgery.
I just thought it was so cute when she asked to fly again tonight. She is such a sweet little girl. And after prayers we have a very special kiss that Megan made up. First she kisses my left cheek, right cheek, forehead, nose, lips, and chin. And then I do the same to her. It is ALWAYS in that order too. Megan NEVER goes to bed without doing kisses with Mommy. Gosh I love that girl!
Until next time,
Jaime

Was totally thinking about you the other day...hoping things are well. I think you should come to Dallas so we can hang out for a few days.
What a cutie. Maybe she'll be a pilot someday!??
