First Prayer

Tonight we kneeled down to say bedtime prayer with Tavish and for the first time he started saying his little prayer all by himself! Here's what a 2 year old says in his prayer (said in slightly high-pitched "being sweet" voice):

Dear Heavenly Father,
thank you for this day,
thank you for pancakes and applesauce (which he had just finished eating)
thank you for the boat and for Nephi's older brothers (we had just finished reading the "boat story" and sang the Primary song about building the boat)
thank you for Nephi, thank you for Nephi, thank you for Nephi (his eyes are open and he is looking at his book that is open to the boat story)

at this point we had to take over and help him finish his prayer which ended with a very emphatic "Amen!"
