We asked C to say grace at dinner tonight. Usually his standard prayer is, "Dear Lord, Thank you for our food, Amen." Pretty normal stuff. Tonight he shocked us with, "Dear Lord, thank you for our good, sweet Colin boy...that's all." That is what he said, word for word. It was all we could do to keep from laughing. Instead we added thankfulness for our food.
Hmmm...I'm not sure where he got the modeling for this prayer. Wait, I'm pretty sure it's something similar to what I prayed for him last night--which is just me praying in front of him at bedtime--trying to show him how to pray. I'm pretty sure I said thank you for our good sweet Colin or something to that effect, but didn't say...that's all.
Once again--self confidence for C is not a problem. Humility might be a bit harder. At least he gets it honest from his daddy. Scott wouldn't be near as good at his job if he didn't think he was the best.
