the power of prayer?

i didn't mention that after magnificent and i told sebastian he couldn't take the day off school he told us matter of factly that he was going to pray that there was no more school.

imagine my surprise when i received an email seven hours later from kennedy school announcing that due to the water pipes exploding, the school would be closed the next day. imagine sebastian's glee!

he wasn't smug, he didn't remember his prayer (thankfully), but he did enjoy his day off and has informed me that he is a superhero. imagine that, one day off of school and he is a superhero.

Hi Tess,

How funny! I sign up for "the power of prayer" alerts on google web alerts and this just came into my email a moment ago. So, I had to click on it ... Your son is sweetheart. He knows his prayers and he believes in them. That's all it takes, that and a lil' humility and God is always listening. My husband and I know the power of prayer as we've been praying to find a good home since we relocated back to the east coast from Los Angeles. We live on a lake and it is pure tranquility, just as we prayed, literally got down on our knees together, held hands and prayed to the Lord for some help.

God bless you on being a phenomenal mama!

Your new friend through the blogosphere,

Maybe you can get him to pray that he'll have a really good time there.
