Grateful for two thing


In an attempt to develop gratitude in my children, and especially in their prayers, we remind our children to please remember to that Heavenly Father for two things. We have been doing this for about 6 months now, and for the most part it is understood that is what we are to do in prayers.

One morning this week AnnaLisa was having a difficult time with being happy and pleasant to be around. It was time for morning family prayer and it was her turn. We gently reminded her that she needed to remember to be thankful for two things. I was not sure how the prayer was going to turn out (even after it started) and then she said, thank you for the twins and please bless them. After the prayer she said, "There are two twins". Well, that is my big girl AnnaLisa, always following the rules.
