Every night before going to bed, I would gather my little kids ( I only have 2 actually) to sit and pray. My li'l boy would start out by 'praying' with his own language and at times I could her him mention some names like "appa", 'mo Anneh" ( timo Anneh), Anni ( Granny) and end up with "Amen!!". While my little girl would follow with her own prayers.
But one night, I can't help but be amused by my li'l girl's prayer it went on like this.
" Lord, please Appa Lord as he is in Nepal. Let him be okay. Let him not be in trouble. I miss my Appa Lord. But I will see him in 11 days. 11 days take away one and it will be 10 days.. 10 days take away one and it will be 9 days.. 9 days take away one and it will be 8 days, 8 day take away 1 and it will be 7 days, 7 days take away 1 and it will be 6 days. 6 Days take away one and it will be 5 days. 5 days take away 1 and it will be 4 days ( now, with her excitement building up..)!!. 4 days take away one and it will 3 days!!! 3 days take away one and it'll be 2 days!!!! and 2 days ( she's running out of breath now) take away one and it'll be one more day!!!!! And then Appa will come.. Yehey!!! ( While another small voice chiming in, "Yey!".)
WHew!! It was a good thing that Hubby is not away for 100 days or else we could have had an overnight prayer!;)
