Some Recent Prayers

The other night, it was Audrey's turn for family prayer, and for the first time she wanted Kierra to help her. Well, Kierra still needs help with her prayers, so Mommy fed lines to Kierra who then fed them to Audrey. Why not get Daddy in the line so he can participate too?

Anyway, the next night Audrey helped Kierra with her prayer:

Audrey: Please bless Mommy.
Kierra: Please bless Mommy.
Audrey: Please bless Kierra.
Kierra: Please bless. (thinking that Audrey was only addressing her, not telling her to say her own name)
Audrey: (trying again) Please bless Kierra.
Kierra: Please bless.
Audrey: No, no, please bless Kierra.

This happened several more times. It was very difficult to keep from laughing! I don't know what it is about their sweet praying voices, but when you throw something like this in, we just have to laugh! I know, I shouldn't complain about them being irreverent when I'm showing this type of example during family prayer. How do you not laugh, though?
