Let's think of one thing to thank God for, I say to Ellie and Caitlin just before I start our nightly prayer.
Ellie says, "I thank God for my parents." (How nice, it is good to feel appreciated after a long day.)
Three year old Caitlin says, "I thank God that I will be able to cut my carrots with a knife." Uh, I how do I fit that one into my prayer? Every prayer is precious and no matter what, I need to make Caitlin feel that her prayer is important too. So I try to weave it in at the end. But before I get to the end, Caitlin goes, "Where is my section?"
