Praying


This is a picture of me in 1956 so I was 8 years old.
I was reading "The Lord's Prayer" in the Book of Mormon this morning and was reminded of my father, Daniel Henry McCauley.  It was my father who first taught me to pray.  The first prayer he taught me was:  "Now I lay me down to sleep.  I pray the Lord my soul to keep.  If I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take."  Then when I was a little older, he taught me the Lord's Prayer.  My father was a Catholic but didn't go to church.  Yet, he was such an incredible role model for me in so many ways and taught me so much about what it means to be principled person.
