to the military kids - Kids Coping with Deployment

mxngurl956 · 02-12-2008, 12:39 PM

I thought this would be a good place to put this. I think we should have our kids to read this..I thought it was so sweet

Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray dear Lord, my soul you'll keep
My mommy says I need to pray,
For many others on this day.

But my daddy - he's a soldier,
Of this I'm sure you know,
He helps protect our freedom,
I was sad to see him go.

Although I know he's safe with you,
I'd rather have him here,
'Cause he's the one who always said
With prayer, there's no fear.

Dear Lord, I know you hear me,
Way up in the sky,
Please protect my daddy,
I wish he was here tonight.

I Love You Daddy!

DF sent me the link so I can give it to my son but he's only 4, if he could only read...but I'll read it to him.
