Motherhood is Bliss!
After years of infertility, we are truly blessed to have three precious children in our lives. I never take a day for granted and know that God's timing is always perfect.

We originally taught our son "Now i lay me," and then would just say, "Thanks for...." etc. at the end. But pretty soon the "Now i lay me" part got dropped and now he just makes up all his own prayers. And i wouldn't have it any other way. The things he prays for are awesome!
Hi Aimee, I like this one...
Dear God, We thank you for the night,
And for the pleasant morning light,
For rest and food and loving care,
And all that makes the world so fair.
Help us to do the things we should,
To be to others kind and good,
In all we do, in work and in play,
To grow more loving everyday.
Bless ....(family members, friends and pets!)
An easy prayer for little ones to remember:
Thank you Lord, for loving us.
Help us to love you, too.
And let us love each other,
And do as you would do.
Followed by the child's own prayer:
(i.e. Bless Mommy, Daddy, Taylor, Pepper and Mittens)
Hey Self...
We don't have any set prayers we do, but i always have certain things I always say along with other things... Like i always "thank God for Jackson and how much we love and adore him" and then i always ask God to always make him a kind and sweet boy and a wonderful big brother like he is.... but other than that we just pray whatever every night. It was cute, the other night i kissed him good night and was leaving and he said "Mama? Will you please pray for me?" Ahhh! This sweet boy couldn't be any more wonderful!!
Hey Aimee...I've been following you since iParenting...I love your blog. Here's the prayer we use with our 4 year old and 15-month old:
Dear God who I cannot see,
Smile down on little me.
Let angels through the darkness spread
their holy wings around my bed.
And keep me safe because I am
my loving Shepherd's little lamb.
(then my son adds the longest list of "God Bless..." people...and things...and the circus...)
