A Child's Prayer

As told to me by Cindy last night:

I went in to hear Ally say her prayers before bedtime. At the end of the prayer Ally asked, "Did you see me do this?" and then she scratched her skin by her mouth. "No," replied Cindy. Then Ally asked, "Well, then did you see me do this?" and then rubbed her eyes. "No," replied Cindy. "Why didn't you?!" Ally replied back. "Because I had my eyes shut," Cindy replied. Ally got this pained look on her face, and then said, "It's a parent's job to be like this during prayers!" and then she did her best impression of someone peeking while trying to look like their eyes were still shut. Cindy then related to me, "I guess she's used to Dad during prayertime!"
