At dinner, a little boy was asked to lead in prayer.
BOY: “But I don’t know how to pray.”
DAD: “Just pray for your family members, friends and neighbors, the poor, etc.”
BOY: “Okay.”
BOY: “Dear Lord, thank you for our visitors and their children, who finished all my cookies and ice cream. Bless them so they won’t come again.”
“Forgive our neighbor’s son, who removed my sister’s clothes and wrestled with her on her bed.”
“This coming Christmas, please send clothes to all those poor naked ladies on my daddy’s Blackberry and provide shelter for the homeless men who use mom’s room when daddy is at work.”
“AMEN.”
Dinner was cancelled.
Moral of the story…Be careful what you ask children to say!
Welcome to my little corner of the world where you never know what you will find! It could be anything from a joke to a funny picture to a personal rant to a favorite recipe to an awesome quote to any random "bright idea" that pops into my mind.

Why adults give children a public platform without coaching will never cease to amaze me. Children are to honest for their own good.
ReplyDeleteI so agree, Blondie...have no clue as to why parents think encouraging children to 'free style' is a good idea. ;)
