Dakota has been learning to pray on her own. I try to say bedtime prayers with her every night and then before meals as well. She's been folding her arms and closing her eyes for quite a while but has recently wanted to assist verbally.
She repeats a lot of the prayer when I say it and also likes to throw in her own blessings from time to time.
On Sunday, some family came over for dinner and my aunt was asked to offer the blessing. Dakota folded her arms and as Betty was saying the prayer, Dakota started interjecting with her own statements like, "Thank you food. Thank you hungry. Bless Grandma and Dave..." Finally, Betty paused to let her say her piece and Dakota rounded it up with, "THE END!!"
By then, we all couldn't help but giggle. I still tried to help her end it the proper way, but we all thought it was pretty cute.

This is dedicated solely to the funny things my kids do and say that make me laugh every day... and maybe when they're older I can use some of these stories to embarrass them :)
