I watched my darling Jamayia do the most absolutely c-u-t-e-s-t thing tonite–she prayed by herself!!! All together now “awwwww”…
All of us were upstairs, catching jokes at the “What Not to Wear” marathon. Jamayia grabbed my hand, and dragged me to the kitchen, looking for a snack. I poured some little fruit puffs into her cup, and set it by the fireplace hearth for her. She knelt down (as she often does to snack there, since it’s raised) and started eating. After a couple puffs, she caught herself.
She then folded her hands, said something in Jamayia-talk and ended with “Amen”.
Gotta love seeing your parenting efforts in action.
