Chesska's Prayer

Praying before bedtime has already been part of Chesska's daily routine. We just taught her a simple prayer that she could easily remember. Besides, her father was a former sacristan, so there's no reason why we shouldn't.

One time, her prayer caught our attention......

Chesska's Version: 


First, she made a sign of a cross by touching her forehead when mentioning "Father",  then touched her left shoulder for "Son", (despite constantly teaching her at the lower middle of the chest; I know for a 2-year old, it is still tough yet to master ), then touched her right shoulder for "Holy" then back to left shoulder for "Spirit". 

Her prayer goes this way...

Sas (Jesus), tenkyu (thank you) dis day....
Tenkyu juice, pap (as in lollipop), bread, cake, candy, ice cream,  Jollibee! (raise her voice with excitement)....
Tenkyu mama papa..Amen....
Father, Son, Ly, Rit..Amen...

For a 2-year-old young and innocent mind, it is admirable to see her pray, and at the same time sounds hilarious especially the way she mentioned the foods she was usually eating. You see,  how famous Jollibee is?
