Are you trying to tell us something, Jacob?

Danny and Jacob argue over who gets to say the prayer at meal times. It's to the point where the girls have probably forgotten how to pray over a meal because it's been so long since any of them have had the opportunity. Usually Jacob's prayers are kind of mumbly and hard to understand but today I could clearly make out what he was praying for. It didn't have much to do with the food in front of him and it made me wonder about the quality of life in our home! He specifically asked that nobody in our house would get owies, throw up, take medicine, cry, fight or scream. Doesn't that make you want to visit the Nielson family real soon?!

Awesome prayer, Jacob! The favorite pleas at my house include phrases like, "Bless Mom that she won't have a headache," or "Bless Mom to not be so mad." So nice.

Hopefully his prayers will be answered. Then it's smooth sailing...
