As I travel across the country, folks often ask me, what is it that I pray for? And like most of you, my prayers sometimes are general: Lord, give me the strength to meet the challenges of my office.

Sometimes they’re specific: Lord, give me patience as I watch Malia go to her first dance, where there will be boys. Lord, have that skirt get longer as she travels to that dance.

— President Obama, at the 2011 National Prayer Breakfast

Ah, the prayer of a loving father for his daughters!  It made me smile and laugh a little.
