I wrote my cousin Jenn an email today telling her how adorable Riley was last night when I saw her. Her response was priceless...
Hey girl!
I'm sitting here looking ridiculous because I have this huge grin on my face that won't go away. It looks like I have a hanger in my mouth.
Thank you so much for wondeful compliments on Riley Nicole. I love her too pieces.
Get this. Yesterday, I was driving her to Ruth's house and I said, "Let's say a prayer for you today, Riley girl." All I got out was, "Lord please watch over Riley today."
She yells out from her car seat, "Amen!" I almost had to pull over! I had planned on adding more to the prayer, but I guess Riley knew what needed to be said. Ruth said that before the kids eat lunch they hold hands while she says the blessing. Invariably one of the kids yells out Amen so they can get to eating.
Today, we go through the same ritual and again she says, "Amen!" My gas light was on and not even thinking, I said out loud, "Lord, please don't let us run out of gas."
Riley shouts out, "Amen!"
I guess if you start out a sentence with Lord, she knows you end it with Amen. What an angel.
Wow, my first novel! I hadn't intended on writing a book about Riley....sorry. I do have a cool pen name......Paige Turner. Get It? Have a great day!
