Ella's prayer

This morning's family prayer is one of those moments I want to hold on forever. Ella gave the prayer. It was beautiful, heartfelt and compassionate. I am so very thankful to her for being such a wonderful person and spirit, with so much love, charity and faith to infuse the little world around her, her family and friends, as well as the bigger world out there.


So this morning, dear sweetheart, you gave thanks for your family, naming each of the family members. You gave thanks for having your dearest grandparents here with us, and prayed that grandma/mamaie doesn't get a cold when she walks to school to pick you up.

You gave thanks for mommy and daddy and prayed for each of our well-being and safety today.

You gave thanks for the beautiful world we live in.

You found all these wonderful thoughts and yearnings in your heart early in the morning when you're barely awake. You are so special to us and to Heavenly Father. You are His daugther and I'm grateful to tears that you are my daughter too.

 May your journey in this life be filled with love, joy, and much happiness.
