My three year old nephew offered this dinner prayer last week: "Thank you God for all the food, Mommy, Daddy, and Sisters. And please make Boiler (their puppy) stop licking his bottom." His mother thinks he was peeking during the prayer!
My own nearly fifteen year old son offered this one a week or so ago: "Thanks for the food and all you give us. Let me be safe at the swimming party and let #2 be able to find something else to do." That was his not-so-subtle way of letting us know he didn't want any tag-along brothers!
The prayers around town haven't been so funny. Many homes were destroyed in this storm. It is going to take a lot of time and muscle to get things back to normal. But the prayers for safety were mostly answered positively and we all are thankful for that.
Many are still without power and for quite a few that means loss of water as well. Please pray for Eastern Carolina as she picks up the pieces that Irene left behind.
