I'm sick...and Alexander is slowly getting there. Nothing to bad just the sickness that makes your voice change. When I woke up in the morning I rolled over and asked Zac what time it was, his response, "what did you do with my wife?" He tells me I sound like a man, and honestly I think my voice drops lower every day. :)
So I am laying in bed trying to just sleep and get rid of this yucky sickness and I have a movie on for Alexander as he is sitting next to me. He says to me
Alex: Mommy, are we going to get out of bed?
Me: Honey, Mommy is sick and just wants to sleep.
Alex: No, don't you want to go to some stores or something.
Me: No, loves...I just don't feel well and I just need to rest.
Alex: Here I will give you a blessing. The next thing I know Alex has his hands on my head and is saying the sweetest prayer.
Me: Thanks Alexander that was very nice of you, and I am proud of you.
Alex: Yes, Mommy a blessing is when you do this (shows me how to put your hands on your head) and a prayer is like this (folds his arms and begins to pray).
Me: Very good Alexander, I love you.
I was so touched I started to cry as I just pray that he will continue to learn these teachings and remember them in his later years. I am always amazed at what he learns and remembers, and it just makes me so happy inside to see him understand so much.
And to tell you the truth, I think I even felt better. :)

I think his prayers get to Heavenly Father a lot faster than our prayers :) I'm glad you were well enough to blog about it.
