our little thank you pray-er

so i wanna share something with you that happened last night...

every night before we eat dinner we all hold hands and pray. the prayer is usually pretty short, i'll say, Dear Jesus, Thank you for our family and our food, Amen. and then the boys will yell AMEN! Well, last night we went to hold hands and Domer said, 'Pray?' 'I said yup and before I could start, here is what transpired...

"Jesus thank you food. thank you family. thank you food and books."

At this point Mandy and I looked at each other and smiled. Now, I am convinced Eli saw our smile, because he chimed in...(dom in bold, eli in italics)

"thank you toys"
"thank you toys"

"thank you house"
"thank you house"

"thank you food"
"thank you food"

"thank you mommy chair"
"thank you mommy chair"

"thank you daddy chair"
"thank you daddy chair"

(all i can see/hear are damon wayans and jim carrey as the tele-evangelists from In Living Color at this point, come on nick, hold it together...hey, you too, mandy)

"thank you eli chair"
"thank you e-i chair"

"thank you chance"

"thank you aluloolo food"

and Mandy said, "Amen"
AMEN
