The Bedtime Prayer of a 2 1/2 Year Old

July 31, 2005

My son’s new prayer:

Dear Jesus,

Please help us to go to McDonald’s and help me to have a good sleep.

In Jesus’ name,

Amen.

I have to admit, I don’t blame him. I would pray the same if my grandparents took me to McDonald’s, let me stay up two hours past my bedtime playing on the playground, let me order and consume an entire soda (despite my 2 1/2 year old size, my overdue bedtime and before I even touched my hamburger & french fries) and then let me order and consume a large ice cream cone to top it all off.

Grandma and Grandpa’s scheduled day of departure was the following morning so, unfortunately, they were denied the opportunity to experience the fallout effects of their evening of fun and frolic.
