When I was just a child, I learned to pray.
I taught all my toy children how not to stray.
Some learned very easily it seemed
While others couldn't in there wildest dreams.
I drilled them over and over, even offered a treat.
But, it seemed a lost cause for them to complete.
I asked God to forgive my little ones for being so slow.
They are really trying I just seem to know.
One day they will make us all so proud.
Seeing my children say their prayers will draw a crowd.
God must have a special place in heaven for dolls and pets.
Because of them we grow up with no regrets.
And we seem to learn our prayers ever so well,
Practice with our loved ones makes us excel.
