Disney Prayers

My son's bedtime routine involves much of the same activities as most 4 year olds across the world.  He brushes his teeth, hugs everyone goodnight, climbs into bed for a story, and finishes with prayer time.  Let me tell you -- my child says GREAT prayers.  Amazing even.  His prayers could be used as illustrations for sermons, or teaching points for seminary professions.  Okay, I won't go that far, but seriously, the boy can pray.

For the last several nights my little strawberry blonde has thanked God for his family, asked the Holy Spirit to help him be obedient, and has made this special request:   

"God, please let us go to Disney World for my five birthday."

Sweet?  Of course?  Every mother loves to hear the heartfelt prayers of her children.  This momma's heart is touched even more when Disney magic shows up in them!

Since I am home in bed -- sick with a terrible cough/cold/bronchitis (the doctor will confirm later) -- I have decided to plan a "Five Birthday" trip for my son.  Although the trip won't necessarily fall on his birthday, as my husband will more than likely still be in school, a WDW trip at the end of June is not out of the question.    

The possibilities are limitless -- well, not exactly limitless, we do survive on a two-teacher income -- so I will be putting together probably a dozen packages to compare resorts, restaurants, dining plans, etc.  This is my way of maximizing my sick day - since I feel too lousy to do much else.  

Have a magical day!
