Forgiving Together

Our daughter is a Down Syndrome child. We have been teaching her to say the Lord's Prayer with us in church. Over the years, we've learned she has her own interpretations of everything so it didn't surprise us when we heard her say, "... and forgive us our debts as forgive together." The more we think about it, we suspect that's what Jesus meant all along.
