Pray like Jay

One of the things that Andrea and I try to do is to teach our children to pray. Hannah is getting really good at it and I think she truly understands the concept. Jay is getting there as well, but he's still at the point where he either loses his train of thought or starts praying about something that is so off the wall that we struggle to keep our composure.

Each evening, before we put the kids to bed, we sit down and pray for them. Then we ask them to pray as well. Here's how Jay's prayer went the night before last.

Dear Lord,
Thank you for my friends
for Danny
for Matt
and
for somebody else
and
for the one who stole my nose
uh
and my ear.
In Jesus name, Amen.

The best part is that even though we had no idea what he was talking about, he was completely serious and sincere. I love that boy. Now I've got to track down several missing parts of his face and I have no clue where to begin looking.
