AMEN

Abby has been asked to say prayers in Nursery several times and just freezes. She gets really shy and wont say anything. She can say a prayer just fine. We decided to see if we can help her overcome her fear of saying a prayer in nursery by having her say the all the family prayers. Tonight was the first night. We couldn't get her to say one so I decided to have her tell me what to say as if I didn't know how to say a prayer. She said, "Heavenly Father, bless the food, Jesus Christ...." she then just sat there and we waited for her to finish it. Then out of the blue Megan said AMEN. I looked up at her and she started to giggle. She then continued to say amen over and over again. So proud of herself.
She always surprises us with random words that she has picked up. Amen who would have guessed she knew how to say amen.
On the other hand Abby did say a prayer and I decided not to tell her we don't bless the food during family prayer, because I want her to feel comfortable with praying. It was hard for me though.
Fun moments when your a Mom
