Gabriel said his first prayer a few weeks ago. I've been asking him if he wants to bless the food every time we sit down to dinner and he usually says no. But, one evening he said yes, and then he did his usual arm fold (where he covers his eyes with his folded arms) and I prompted him through the prayer - he did great! So, since then he is always eager to pray. He said his first prayer in nursery last Sunday. And we had the sister missionaries over for dinner last night and without any prompting he just started praying right after the sisters shared their spiritual thought...it was pretty funny, because we weren't quite ready.
He also likes to "read" the scriptures with us during family scripture reading, and always starts us out. He has his own little Book of Mormon and one of Patrick's old scripture cases. Every night he runs and gets it and climbs up on the couch to sit in his "spot." He opens the scriptures and starts "reading" away. We captured a video clip of it...pretty darn cute!
