A Sweetie and a Prayer

night-night time ---all cleaned up --- ready for bed

Braylin has learned how to pray. She recognizes Jesus' name and

tells me that "he loves me".  Makes my heart beat an extra beat...

"That is exactly right, Braylin and we need

to thank Him for everything that he gives you." 

She bows her head, puts her little chubby hands together, 

and begins in the sweetest most beautiful voice,

"Thank you Jesus for this day...

Thank you for my chok milk,

Thank you for Momma,

Thank you for Daddy,

Thank you for Fibi,

Thank you for my fiends (friends),

Thank you for Jayee (Jalee),

Thank you for Jojo,

Aaaaaaaamen!"

That's only an example of one her prayers but she is very thankful for EVERYBODY in 

her family and thanks Jesus for each of them often. Sometimes she's even thankful for all of 

the little things in the room at that very time... and she will thank Jesus for exactly that, no matter

how long it might take to list off everything in her sight.

My prayer always, is that God lead me to be the mother he intended me to be

and to guide me to guide her. She sure has taught me wonders...

and FOR THAT

I praise God

and rejoice in one of the biggest blessings I have ever received. 

Undeserving;  I see God's mercy. 

My faith continues to grow

right along with this Sweet Angel of Mine! 

Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.     *Matthew 7:7-8
