Bed-Time Blessings

Ella is doing this new thing that is wonderful. After we read books together (mom & girls or dad & girls) at night and pray, she says, "let me bless." And she hugs and kisses Lilly, and makes a three-part "T" on Lilly's forehead (while trying to keep Lilly from moving), and says, "Bless my Lilly - Son of God", then she turns to me and says "and bless my mama" and then she blesses herself, and Cold Paws her stuffed polar bear, and Dolly her Raggedy Ann. A lovely thing!
