There are times when I'm convinced that God has a sense of humor. I'm most convinced of this when I listen to our children pray. I imagine God listens to them and has to stifle a chuckle or two, just like me. Here are some of our favorites as of late:
Sam during bedtime prayers: Dear God, Thank you for my birthday. (His birthday was 8 months ago, but we still thank God for it every night.) And thank you for my toys. And thank you for letting Nana and Bap come to my school. And thank you for my next birthday. Amen. Oh....and please help Mommy and Daddy pick up my toys.
Sydney before eating: (Singing) Thank you Father....thank you Father. I wanna play Mommy's phone. Amen.
Sydney at bedime: (I had started praying, and she interrupted me.) Mommy! I say prayers!!! Dear God, I wanna go Nana's house. And I take brother to school. Amen.
