Teaching kids to pray to Father, or always Jesus?

In prayer, like at the evening dinner table, my kids primarily always ask the blessing opening with "Thank you Jesus...", and end with "in Jesus name". Hardcore oneness I guess-LOL


I'm not demanding theres really too much wrong with that, but to commonly never mention "Father" seems a little unbiblical to me. When I open in prayer I usually say "Father". I guess they go without using "Father' because our service leader at church ALWAYS just says "Jesus" this or "Jesus" that, no "Father" distiction at all.



And then yesterday, my 5 yr. old's memory verse was :
1 Thess. 1:1 Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the Thessalonians which is in God the Father and in the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

She seemed a little confused at that verse LOL


Anybody run into this stuff?
