Praying for a baby

NO it's not what you think. CC is praying for a baby. We were driving in the car and she asks me, "Mommy where do we get babies from? You know, before you get them in your belly?"

Me: "From God. You pray that God blesses you with a baby."

CC: "Ok well then how do you pray for a baby girl?"

Me: "I guess the same way. Most people don't mind if they get a boy or a girl, they just pray for a healthy baby."

So CC gets super quiet....

Me: "CC, are you alright?"

CC: "Mommy shh.... I'm praying."

And they she continues," Dear God, please bless me, my mommy, my daddy, and my baby Carter. And please bless us with a baby girl. Most people want a healthy baby, but I want a healthy baby girl. I will even share my toys, and let her chew on my books. I guess I'll take a baby boy, just give us whatever you have left in heaven. Amen"

Is that not the sweetest thing you have ever heard? Let's hope this is one of God's unanswered prayers:)
