Jasper said, "Thank you" on his own tonight. He said it a couple times this evening when Josh gave him a cracker and then later when I gave him a drink of water.
We started reading out of a kids Bible story book at night a few nights ago, and Jasper really liked the "Baby Jesus" book. He can say Jesus - it's so sweet! We say bedtime prayers with him every night, but the past few nights we've been having him repeat back a prayer of, "Dear Jesus, thank you for today. Bless Mommy, Daddy, Grandmas, Grandpas, Nano and Hermie. Please help me sleep well tonight. In Jesus' name, Amen." We say two or three words and then he repeats them. Last night and tonight when I said, "In Jesus' name" instead of repeating them, he just said, "Amen."
Jasper's also been doing really well at mealtime prayers. When we tell him it's time to say prayers, he'll usually say "down" and put down whatever food he's got in his hand and then clap his hands together while we say a quick prayer. He's also starting to put his hands together for prayer at church when we ask him to.
