Caselli Family Prayer

Summer 2014 has come to an end.
I'm back in Jarabacoa
and it is good.


I found myself,
several times over the summer,
standing around a table
in a large circle
holding the hands of people I love.

We would sing,
smile,
laugh at the little ones.
It is something I will hold onto this year.

Please don't think my summer was peachy perfect.
It wasn't.
Nothing is.

But those times around the table were pretty close...

"oh the Lord is good to me"

"and so I thank the Lord"

"for giving me the things I need"

"the sun"

"the rain"

"and the appleseed"

"the Lord is good to me"

"amen"

"amen"

"amen"

"amen"

"amen"

"AAAAAMEN"



Does your family ever say/sing this prayer?
A different one?
What traditions do you have around meals?
