Who Knew?!?

Seriously, who knew that a dinosaur mylar balloon could entertain a typically grumpy toddler for a whole 20 minutes? Not only that, but I utilized the balloon as motivation for saying please. Everytime he let go of the balloon and it floated to the ceiling, far out of his reach, he had to ask for it. He was more than motivated to sign please. I'm hoping that the motivation and my follow through helps him to do that on a more regular basis! We shall see :~) What motivates you to say please? Do you engage in conversation with God on a regular basis? Are you saying, "Please let me have that new car?" or "Please protect my child in this surgery." or maybe its even harder, like "Please don't let me ever experience the pain of loss again." Whatever your prayer, God is listening, whether there is a please or not...
