Saying a little prayer

Today Calleigh was having some quiet time, she loves looking at books and telling her version of all the stories.  She makes a huge mess of all the books she has, a puts them all over the floor.  Today however, she picked up one of her church books, "Hail Mary" which is a prayer we say to Mary (a mother, a sister, or friend).  The prayer/book goes like this:

Hail Mary, full of grace.
The Lord is with you.
Blessed are you among woman,
and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.

I could hear her saying, "Hail Mary, full of Grace. Amen" has she flipped through the pages.  This absolutely melted my heart, to know that what we say she really is listening and picking up on ALL we say.  As time goes on, I am sure she will pick up on more of the prayer, and others to.
