Some of your may know I teach the six year olds at church. I have two in my class. They are twins brothers. I guess they had reputation of being out of control. Thank goodness for them and me I was raised with three brothers. I didn't see them acting in any out of control way.
This past Sunday I was given two extra little guys in my class. One was visiting his Grandparents and assured me he would be back at Christmas. The other boy's family has moved into our Ward so I will have him every week. Trevor offered to give the closing prays when the lession was over. We bowed our heads. I wondered in those few seconds what is young boy could have to say to our Father in Heaven. This is what he said...Father in Heaven..Thank you for my new class at church. Thank you for our new house and that we are out of our crappy Apartments. Help me to have a good day and be good. Amen. I was sort of in shock but our visit spoke up saying..That prayer was all about you. You didn't even ask for us to be bless or have a good day.
He looked at me and said...That was not a very good prayer.
I wonder what I am in for with this little guy? HELP !!! (SMILE)

Sounds like he has been through a lot already in his young life.
