Prayers

For all of Cael's life, we have said at least 3 prayers a day. The kid has heard a million prayers. He, however, will never say his own prayer. We always have to tell him what to say. When we say, "In the name of ..." and he can finish it out, but that is it! Nothing, nada, no more than that. We have tried and tried to get him to, but he is not interested. He will kneel, or fold his arms at the dinner table, or anything else associated with our prayers, but WILL NOT say them. Tonight I was out at a church activity, and Chet just informed me that he said his own prayer. He said that Cars taught him. This is Chet's rememberance of what he said, "I have a nice house. I have great brothers. hehehe. Thank you for my house. Thank you for my great brothers. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen." (Thats the best he can remember it, Chets memory sucks!) He said there was no intro. We do thank Heavenly Father for our comfortable house that is so nice and for our family probably every night, so maybe that's where that came from. I don't know where they come up with half their sayings, but I will take what I can get. So happy for him. He climbed up on my lap while I was tickling Colby the other day and layed his head on my shoulder. Then he said, "Don't you just love your babies!" (Carter, Cars, and Caden are the boys and Cael and Colby are my babies - kinda weird but its stuck!) I do love my babies. All six of them!!!

 (A great friend gave Colby a sucker right before a family picture and church. Gotta love your friends!!!)
