Marshal has really taken an interest in praying in the past few months. At first he was very content to let us lead the prayer and copy each thing that we said. Recently he has become more independent wanting to pray by himself or add in his own thoughts.
Last night we were saying family prayer before bed. Marshal was copying Dan but then a little bit into the prayer he started saying his own things despite what Dan was saying. Marshal's addition to the prayer went something like this:
"Thank de kethcup. Thank de fa ketchup and french fries.Thank de fa french fries. An an chicken nuggets."
I guess he was tired of saying thanks for all the boring stuff that is probably meaningless to him like, thank thee for the day, for safety and the gospel. He must have just wanted to throw something in there that he was really thankful for. Clearly my kids eat too many french fries!
Hahaha, Dan and I had a good laugh over this one. Can't wait to hear what he prays for next!

haha that's hilarious. We often catch Thomas praying by himself in his crib or just sitting in a corner...but he's usually praying for family (either us or extended family). The funny thing is, when we pray together, if we start ending the prayer before he's ready (ie we forgot to bless someone, usually), he starts going "not Jesus Christ, not amen" haha
