Little Blessings

So, Mike is started incorporating a nighttime prayer to MP3's bedtime ritual.  He starts by recapping the day (which he has been doing for a while) then giving thanks for our blessings.  He then explains how you can ask for blessings as well then asks God to bless our family (the amount of detail during this section depends on how tired MP3 is).  He then asks for something "bigger."  We just want to make sure that he is aware of the rest of the word out there and not just the part that he comes in contact with.  He'll ask God something like, bless those that are less fortunate, those that need help talking to God, word peace - ya know the standards. :)  Anyway, he ends the prayer with, "What would you like to ask God to bless?"  Tonight, MP3's answer was, "Bless the Mama downstairs?"  How sweet!!!


Although to put things in perspective, one day last week his answer to this same question was, "Fix the buttons?"  Just before bed, he realized that his play remote's batteries went dead and he kept asking us to fix it.  The poor thing must have figured that if we couldn't do it, maybe God would.
