Let's Get Spiritual

Lately we have been praying to Jesus before bedtime, and it feels good. Luke says, as he lays down to go to bed, "Let's pray to Jesus." This has come out of his fear of Halloween. All the monsters and ghouls have him in his annual dither, and so we ask Jesus to send Guardian Angels to sit by Luke's side while he sleeps. This is a strategy my parents gave to me when I was young and had bad dreams... and whenever I prayed, it ALWAYS worked- no bad dreams. True story. So, we're bringing some faith back into our lives and keeping the monsters at bay. We are also remembering, as Thanksgiving looms, to be thankful for the gifts in our lives. Last night Luke told Jesus he was very thankful for all his toys. Lord knows he's got enough of them!
