"Amen"

This is my most favorite new trick of Eden's. Recently she has started praying with us. It is so sweet. She hears the word "prayer" and automatically folds her little arms and squints her eyes shut. The frist time I realised she knew how to pray was one afternoon, I put her in her high-chair with lunch and I walked away. As I walked away I heard mumbling, so I turned around to see what she was doing. She had folded her arms (Crossed them across her body) and bowed her head and was squinting her eyes closed. She prayed in a low monotone mumbly voice (I guess to her that's what I sound like when I pray). But when she was done, she said "Amen". I was sooo impressed! Now, when it's time to pray for bed-time or dinner time or whatever, Eden is always ready. Allthough, she doesn't wait till the end of the prayer to say amen. Usually she says it somehwere in the middle of the prayer. But it is sooo cute! Thanks to Breanna and her handy camera-woman skills while she was in town, she got a pretty good one of Eden one afternoon while praying.
