Bless me, Father!
Those are hilarious!
They (the children and their thoughts) make our day more enjoyable! They just say the darndest things!
May I add some to your list:
(1) A 3-year-old praying the "Our Father":
"Our Father, Who does art in heaven,
Harold is His name.
Amen."
(2) A little boy overheard praying:
"Lord, if you can't make me a better boy, don't worry about it.
"I'm having a real good time just the way I am."
(3) Another 3-year old's version of the "Our Father," ending it with:
"Lead us not into temptation,
"but deliver us from E-mail."
(4) A 4-year old has another idea:
"And forgive us our trash baskets
as we forgive those who put trash in our baskets."
(5) A Sunday school teacher asked her children as they were on the way to Church:
"And why is it necessary to be quiet in Church?"
Her youngest, a 5-year old little boy, replied:
"Because people are sleeping."
(6) A mother was preparing pancakes for her sons, ages 5 and 3. The boys began to argue over who would get the first pancake. Their mother saw the opportunity for a moral lesson:
"If Jesus were sitting here, He would say: 'Let my brother have the first pancake, I can wait.'"
The older turned to his younger brother and said:
"You be Jesus!"
(7) A wife invited some people to dinner. At the table, she turned to their six-year-old daughter and said:
"Would you like to say the blessing?"
"I wouldn't know what to say," the girl replied.
"Just say what you hear Mommy say," the wife answered.
The daughter bowed her head and said:
"Lord, why on earth did I invite all these people to dinner?"
