A Child's Prayer

In the past, Logan has prayed by repeating what Dustin or myself was saying, he would sometimes addlib. Friday night Dustin asked Logan to say the prayer at bedtime. Logan just started in on his own and said a sweet little prayer, giving thanks for each member of his family and for the beautifaul day. What a sweet and simple prayer that it was. I was telling my mom about this today and we were discussing the mixed feelings that a parent has in seeing their children grow up. It truly is a bitter-sweet experience. It is so wonderful to see them reach certain milestones in their life but a bit sad to let go of that sweet baby that you will always remember no matter the age of your child.
