Treven came out of his room tonight after being in bed for about an hour. I totally thought he was asleep and when that boy sleeps there is NO waking him, so I thought this was weird. Anyways he comes to me and says:
"Mom, I am scared and I don't like it. We need to say a prayer so I'm not scared anymore."
So of course I agree and we walk back to his room and he climbs in bed and starts to pray and this is how it went:
"Dear Heavenly Father, Thank you for this special, special, special day. Heavenly Father? I'm scared and will you help me not be scared anymore?" (then he paused for a moment like he was waiting for an answer)"Thank you! In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen."
I don't know about you, but that is just about the sweetest thing I've ever heard!

That is so cute. I miss teaching him so much.
I just love that. He really is an amazing little boy, and I'm so glad I get to be his aunt!
That is so super sweet! That happens around here too. I love the faith of kiddos. It just melts me.
ahh the faith of a child. Shouldn't we all be like this? ;) Love ya guys
What a little sweet hear. I love how children are so trusting. Oh, if we could have the faith of a child. :)
He is such a great teacher of faith and love. Proud to be Grandma!
I love this story. Children are so close to our Father in Heaven. It is so sweet.
Prayers don't need to be elaborate--just faithful. It sounds as if he has a strong personal relationship with Heavenly Father.
Love,
Aunt Marilyn
I linked to your blog from Crystal's! Yay. And I totally agree that was the Sweetest Thing!
