So we decided to add a little flare to our dinner time prayer by adding clapping to a beat (quite a big step for our dinner time prayer). Well both the kids had their eyes closed and we were clapping and singing the prayer. When we got to the Amen part, Renee turned to Maddie and said, "Maddie?" Trying to get Maddie to also say Amen, but all of the sudden, with her eyes closed she had some sort of uncharacteriscally charismatic moment when she extended her arms out and proclaimed, "PRAISE THE LORD!!" Being attendees of Presbyterian churches, Renee and I were quite taken aback by such a charismatic moment at the end of our prayer. Nonetheless, we looked at each other and couldn't help laughing out loud. It was by far one of the funniest things to happen in our house in the past couple of months.
By the way, after asking Maddie where she learned to do that, she just proclaimed that she was not sure, which could only mean that it was the Holy Spirit getting her pumped up from our clapping and singing.
