For a while now, AJ has been in the habit of saying prayers with me before bedtime. He used to want me to say mine first, then he would say a couple of things. More and more, he wants to say his prayer first and he is saying longer and longer prayers. He prays about things we have talked about or things that came up during the day. A little while ago, we took him with us to an event to raise money for Cancer. He listened to all these stories about individuals with Cancer and was especially affected by the stories of children with cancer. Ever since then, he has included prayers to find a cure for cancer (only he pronounces it cancered). He also now prays for his baby brother. I love that he thinks of what he wants to pray for all by himself. He is so sweet, he often prays for God to take care of himself too.
Dave didn't want AJ to know he had the video, so he wasn't very close to us and the sound is very low. Turn your volume up all the way and put your ear to the computer, and you might be able to hear one of AJ's prayers. The beginning is very quiet, so if you can't hear right away at all, give it a minute.
