pRaYeRs

So this little guy is such a cutie! He knows how to say a prayer...but some nights we must bribe him. We have talked to him about prayers and that Heavenly Father will answer your prayers and you can prayer no matter where you are...if you are somewhere scared, if you need help to find something so on. He says great prayers blesses all his friends sometimes everyone he knows. He is very reverent during his prayers. It has been fun to see him learn and grow, but he has said some funny things in his prayers to get what he wants...

"please bless daddy will lay by me"
"please bless we can have cookies tomorrow"
"please bless I can have some chocolate milk"
"please bless jesus" after that prayer he said "mom I just blessed Jesus!" he was so excited...funny.
one night we were playing with him and jason said red don't grow up k! so that night in his prayer "please bless I don't grow up and bless daddy don't grow up"
He is so fun! He has learned how to ride his big boy bike...and won't go a day without ridding it. If it is too cold he brings it in and rides on the wood. He is such a joy and he is growing up too fast. He can button his own shirts get dressed completely by himself. He is a good example to all of us in this house. He is always good to do what we ask. Today after church Jason was at meetings and I had a bad head ache I was laying down with Ruel and he cleaned up all his toys...excited he came in whispered "mom does your head still hurt? I just cleaned up my toys you want to come see?" I love this boy!!! I can't wait to see him and ruel run around together...but i know that will come soon enough i am enjoying them while they are little:)
