Jesus... Hollywood Style

I love it when little kids pray. I love that my brother used to use this really high pitched voice when he prayed and he would pray for EVERYTHING. "Tank you por da forks... tank you por da pwates... tank you por da carrwots...." ad nauseam.

And now, when Gert prays, she pretty much hits the high points (Dear Jesus, thank you for this food, thank you for this good day) but it's her sign off that I love. "In Dear Jesus Name, Amen"

I can just hear it... someone walking up to Jesus....

"Who ARE you?"

"Jesus..... Dear Jesus."

One of my favorites was when my knee first went south on me. I could barely walk and grandson Jesse was praying for me. He ended with something like "You know God, the one with the sore knee."
Their innocence is so pure.

And I am certain that Jesus himself loves him some James Bond :)

I love this post!

We had Yaya's friend over for a playdate and dinner Wed. While Yaya was praying she thanked God for "mommies, daddies, teachers, our house our dogs and Starbucks. Amen."

I'm just glad you didn't use a photo of Jesus in itty bitty blue siwm trunks.

'Cause that just would have been weird.
