A little prayer...

We were reading books today before nap/quiet time just like we do every day.  Talia was fidgeting and accidentally poked me in the eye.  But it was one of those pokes where your eye waters like crazy and you can't open it for a few minutes.  I told the girls to wait just a minute before I could finish the book.  

Silence.  Then all of a sudden I hear, "Heavenly Father, thank thee for this day, bless the food, Name of Jesus Christ. Amen."  I opened my eyes to see Talia's face in mine, "There mom, you all better now."  Why and how my 2 year old thought to say a prayer to bless her mom's eye to see so she could finish the book I don't know!?  But I don't care either...it was the sweetest, most thoughtful thing she could have done.  And those moments make it all worth it.
