A 4-year-old boy who was asked to return thanks before Christmas dinner.
The family members bowed their heads in expectation.
He began his prayer, thanking God for all his friends, naming them one by one.
Then he thanked God for Mommy, Daddy, brother, sister, Grandma, Grandpa, and all his aunts and uncles.
Then he began to thank God for the food.
He gave thanks for the turkey, the dressing, the fruit salad, the cranberry sauce, the pies, the cakes,
even the Cool Whip.

Then he paused, and everyone waited--and waited.
After a long silence, the young fellow looked up at his mother and asked,
"If I thank God for the broccoli, won't he know that I'm lying?"

Awesome Woogyman, I laughed!!

That is cute. For the past few
weeks, when we pray before we eat, my 7 yo son has been thanking God for gravity. We don't know why, but we think it is cute, and we let him. :)

My gosh that is hysterical!! Kids are great!

He must be learning about it in school. If you think about it, wouldn't you rather be on the ground than floating into outer space? lol
