Anna's Prayer

We always pray with Anna before she goes to bed (and before nap and meals).  She doesn't let us forget either!  She is a creature of habit!  She usually has us pray and she interjects who she wants to pray for.  Her list is always Autie, Macey, Uncle Scott, Jude (friend, friend, friend's dad, friends's brother).  In that order :-)

One night, Anna prayed her very first prayer all by herself.  "Dear God, thank you for Anna. Amen."

Isn't that a great look into the selfishness we are born with?  Anna is not an unusually selfish child.  She actually is very inclusive and wants to make sure no one is left out.  But that night, she prayed what was on her heart :-)
