The Little Boy
Oh boy...this is just TOO cute! Leave it to kids!
Have you heard about 4-year-old Sammy who was asked to return thanks before Sunday dinner? The family members bowed their heads in expectation, and he began his prayer:"Thank you God for all my friends: Joey, an' Susan, an' Billy, an' Tommy," and on and on he went, naming each friend one by one.Next he thanked God for Mommy, Daddy, brother, sister, Grandma, Grandpa, and all his aunts and uncles.Finally he got to the food."Thank you God for the turkey, an' the dressing, an' the fruit salad, an' the pies, an' the Cool Whip..."And then he paused.The pause was almost deafening, and all eyes were focused on young Sammy with his head still bowed in prayer.Finally (almost when Father was about to interject an "Amen"), Sammy looked up at his mother and asked, "If I thank God for the broccoli, won't he know that I'm lying?"
