Alessandra's Prayer

What can I give Him poor as I am
If I were a shepherd, I would bring Him a Lamb
If I were a wise man, I'd sure do my part
So what can I give Him? I'll give Him my heart


Our Father, Who art in heaven
Hallowed be Thy Name;
Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. Amen.

Boyfriend Talk
Sofia: "Mommy, you should get a boyfriend."
Alessandra: "Mommy already has a boyfriend Sofia", giggles
Monica: "Who is my boyfriend?"
Alessandra: "Daddy!"
Monica: "What do we do with a boyfriend?"
Sofia: "I don't know...", giggles
Alessandra: "We get married, we talk about things..."
Sofia: "Lick icicles together...", giggles
Alessandra: "I want to lick icicles too!"
