No creatures here!

Every night when Ellie says her prayers, she has a certain set of "please bless"es that she includes. Usually it goes like this:

"Please bless that the fire alarm won't go off.
Please bless that there won't be any monsters or ghosts or beetles or snakes or creatures.
Please bless that my boo-boos will get better.
Please bless that Grandpa U. won't have any cavities in his teeth.
Please bless that Grandma H. won't have any strange problems with her computer."

I think the last two are probably Ellie's way of showing love to her various sets of grandparents. But why the teeth, why the computer? Beats me. All I know is that Grandpa U.'s teeth are probably the most prayed-for teeth in the country, and Grandma H.'s computer may have a special spiritual firewall!

That is the cutest! What a doll. Tell her "hi" from all her Utah cousins.

The fire alarm? Does it go off regularly or did she just have one bad experience?

Thank you Ellie - I can hardly wait (?) for my next visit to the dentist. Now about those crowns I need...
