After writing my recent post about Miss Delaney’s enthusiasm with praying, I was reminded of a story about my two oldest girls and prayers.
When Brianna and Allison were probably not a whole lot older than Delaney, maybe preschool age, they were spending the night with Gaga (my mom). Before bed they wanted to pray. And Bri, my soft-spoken, shy little girl led this prayer time. She started out with…
“Once upon a time…”
Then Allison, who always approaches her older sister in a kind and gentle voice responded to her error. And when I say kind and gentle I mean thoroughly annoyed. Her reply…
“Bri, that’s not a prayer. That’s a story!”
Oops…I’m sure even Jesus got a little chuckle out of that one.
