Then tonight, after saying her prayers, Annabelle asked "The angels watch me for God?" I said "They sure do." She asked "They protect me?" I said "Yes, they do." And she replied...
"Your an angel Mommy!"
The Sweetest Compliment Ever!
Last night after saying her prayers with her prayer angel who recites the sweetest prayer, Annabelle got all inquisitive. She was asking why the angels watch her while she sleeps (The last line of the prayer is "The angels watch me through the night and keep me in their blessed sight."). As we discussed it, she ended up asking me "Them watch me for bob?" (as I twittered for her last night), meaning to ask if the angels watched her for God. Although it took Annabelle repeating the question a few times for me to get that she meant God, not bob, I finally got what she was saying and asked if her she meant God. She said yes, and I responded to the question.
