Night time prayers have become a bit of a struggle lately. Arden used to be really good, kept it somewhat short and kept her eyes closed. Now, she closes her eyes for about 5 seconds then walks around playing with things while attempting to say a prayer, but ends up repeating "boppy, tom-kali" over and over because she isn't concentrating. After a few minutes, I just pick her up and put her in bed while she continues. I feel bad, but she won't listen. She won't let Derek or me say it; she has to do it.
This is a recent one she said before her nap that was actually fairly normal:
Foder dis day, Boppy, Nana, Papa, Mimi, Issa, Boppy, Daddy, Mommy, eat butter jelly, tom kali, Hunter, Incoln, mommy (that means hunter and lincoln's mom) Eli, Ainsley, mommy, Emery, see Boppy amen.
Most days, her prayer includes everyone she can think of that she knows (those above plus Abby (babysitter), Ecky, Paul, Ashie, Mark, B, Coco, Utin, Ainsley's mommmy.
The cutest names she says are Mark and Paul.

I don't think she includes her favorite nursery leader :). One of these days her and I are going to be the best of friends. She actually smiled at me on Sunday............ :)
Well she does love church, and I'm sure it's because of nursery =)....So I felt bad and asked her if she knew her teachers names tonight and she said "teach teach" so I asked her to say sis Gallagher and she said "alligator!" =) we'll work on it!
