Wayne's been praying a lot lately, asking to pray, wanting to pray - it's been a DELIGHT for me to listen to his prayers, talk about his requests, and his thanksgivings. The simplicity, ease, and innosence with which he speaks to God is sweet music to my ears. Here's my paraphrase of his prayer tonight before dinner:
Dear God,
Thanks for my good day. It was good. Please be with all the people coming to my birthday - I don't want anyone sick because they couldn't come. Help them all to be happy for my birthday. Please help my Dad to stay healthy and not cough at all - he will be sick on my birthday. Please help Weston to take his medicine and be good - sometimes he's not good. Thanks for Wyatt, I love him. And for mom for my food. And be with all the people coming to my birthday - that we would not be too loud and we will have LOTS of fun. Thanks God - Amen.
Such a sweet boy! He needs to start praying extra hard for the sick people...he has a big cousin who got sick during the night and is still on the couch not feeling the best. We are all hoping she is the only one. Wayne's buddy is determined to be at his party and not be sick.
