Sweet girl....

Every evening, I read Isabella a few stories and then say her prayers with her. Last night, I was laying there kissing her and she said "Prayers, Mommy!" so we close our eyes and folded our hands. I always start with, "Dear Jesus, thank you for a wonderful day! God bless........." and then she picks it up with... "Mommy (yup, I am always first :), Daddy, Biss, Bella, Uncle Aaron (she ALWAYS says him right after she finishes our family-and she has only met him 3 times and hasn't seen him in a year!), Uncle Shane, Jennifer, Liam, Lucy, Father...". I stopped her there because I didn't understand who "Father" was?? She calls Todd "daddy" so I know it wasn't him...I asked her to repeat what she said and she said "Father and Mother", got up from her bed and pointed to the picture of her birth parents on the wall (we frequently talk about them and I always refer to them as Father and Mother and us as Mommy and Daddy). How sweet is that?? I started to cry....and then I got Todd crying when I told him :) What a nice way to end the night!
