Morning Prayers...

Howdy Doody Folks!

We have a chilly day in Iowa today and it started off with a bang! At our morning prayers around the kitchen bar with kids waiting impatiently to eat their eggs and drink their hot chocolate - Dad's included in that "kids" reference - it was David's turn (our 5 year-old) to say the prayer. After addressing our Father in Heaven and giving thanks for a few things, he stated:

"Please bless Ashlie (our 7 year old) to close her eyes and fold her arms during the prayer, and please bless her to stop pinching me!"

Of course Ashlie and Benjamin had a rebuttal immediately after the "amen" it was the famous - "you wouldn't have known she/I was doing that if you're eyes weren't open!" To that David replied "yeah, but I'm saying the prayer!"

I couldn't resist laughing! Bill Cosby had a brief TV series in the late 90's that was "Kids Say the Darndest things" I think this would've been up there.

That does sound like a Bobby/Cindy situation. Or for that matter, it could have been any of my kids!
