Jeff's prayers

While on vacation Jeff listened to Megan and Mia say prayers. So now when we ask him to say it or ask whose turn it is he doesn't shyly say the prayer or ask one of us to do it. He is excited to say it and says it loud enough for all to here. He starts of great with the normal beginning and then will say stuff that cracks me up. I try so hard not to laugh but they are just so funny. 

Examples: Sometimes he will break into song (not singing, just saying the lyrics). "Thankful for friends, looking out the window, coal from the coal car, shovel it, shovel it" (From Choo Choo Soul on Disney Channel). Sometimes he will repeat parenting moments in his prayer. I asked him to sit in his chair for breakfast and not in the chair in front of Daddy's computer, so he included that in the breakfast prayer. On vacation we went to a lighthouse and told him we would climb it. When we got there it was $7 per person and we only had $5 cash. So we apologized to Jeff and had fun taking pictures by the lighthouse, perusing the gift shop, and collecting pine cones instead. That night at bedtime prayers he said, "Thankful we could go to the lighthouse, but not climb to the top." I love that he is learning. It is so cute to see him pray and use his words.
