In an effort to teach our kids how to pray, we start by saying a prayer and having them repeat it. Evelyn is a girl of very few words. Even though I've heard her say a variety of words there are very few that she will use over and over. Here was Evelyn's first prayer:
Me- "Evelyn say 'Heavenly Father'"
Evelyn- "Phone"
Me-"We thank thee for this day"
Evelyn-"Phone"
Me-"Thank thee for our friends"
Evelyn-"Phone"
Me-"Please bless the food"
Evelyn-"Food!"
Me-"And in the name of Jesus Christ"
Evelyn-"Phone"
Me-"Amen"
Evelyn-"Men"
Not quite the huge success in mimicking that I'd hoped, but at least we know what was on her mind... phones, food and Men.

Honestly, do you think that list is going to change in the next 20 years?
She sounds like a teenager! I love that.
