Sweet Prayers & a Momentus Feat

Tonight Mommy prayed with Kai before bed and this is the prayer that came from his sweet head:

Mommy: Dear God, we thank you for Kai Alexander...
Kai: Elena & Daddy
Mommy: We pray he sleeps well tonight and thank you for Elena and Daddy. We also thank you for Kai's friends.
Kai (in exaggerated whispers): Gracie! Maddie! Big Maddie! Little Maddie! Mommy!
Mommy: Yes, thank you Lord for such good friends.
Kai: And my swingset.
Mommy: Oh, yes, thank you that we have such a fun swingset and that Kai is learning to play like such a big boy on it.
Kai: And my dump truck and digger. And my Nemo pictures.
Mommy: Yes, thank you for all those things, and most of all for Jesus. Please help Kai remember that Jesus is always in his heart. In His Name, Amen.
Kai: Night, Mommy.


I also did something special today...dunt da da dah...I learned to pump on the swing! Wheeeeee! Mommy has been waiting for this day for a looonnng time! I haven't been practicing at all, but I did learn to ride on our rope swing this week, so Mom thought maybe it was time to try pumping again. She was out pushing us and said, "Why don't you try pushing your legs out and then back so you can stay "super high" all by yourself?" And guess what? It worked! I swang my heart out for quite a while, then got all put out because I couldn't get started again myself. I don't think I will EVER be able to do THAT! So then Mom said "That's it! Time for bath!" and I had to go in. I'm still so excited that I'm going to tell all my friends about it.

Good Night! Luv, Elena
