Thank God For Children Saying Grace...

A friend of mine who owns a floral shop here locally had an article in her recent newsletter I like to share with you, because it is touching!

Thank God for children saying grace...

Last week I took my children to a restaurant. My six-year-old son asked if he could say grace. As we bowed our heads he said, "God is good, God is great. Thank you for the food, and I would even thank you more if mom gets ice cream for dessert. And liberty and justice for all! Amen!"

Along with the laughter of the other customers nearby I heard a woman remark, "That's what's wrong with this country. Kids today don't even know how to pray. Asking God for ice cream! Why I never!"

Hearing this my son burst into tears and asked me, "Did I do it wrong? Is God mad at me?" As I held him and assured him that he had done a terrific job and God was certainly not mad at him, an elderly gentleman approached the table. He winked at my son and said, "I happen to know that God thought that was a great prayer."

"Really?" My son asked. "Cross my heart." The man replied. Then in a theatrical whisper he added (indicating the woman whose remark had started this whole thing), "Too bad she never asks God for ice cream. A little ice cream is good for the soul sometimes."

Naturally I bought my kids ice cream at the end of the meal. My son stared his for a moment and then did something I will remember the rest of my life. He picked up his Sundae and without a word, walked over and placed it in front of the woman. With a big smile he told her, "Here, this is for you. Ice cream is good for the soul sometimes and my soul is good already."

Thunder Run - Similar To Design by James Hautman

Thunder Run bedding - a design similar to the art work "Band of Thunder" by famous artist James Hautman.

For a few years now we have been barraged with this question: "When is someone going to come out with a bedding design similar to the Band of Thunder bath [that features the artwork of James Hautman]?"

In case you were wondering the same question, the answer is: "They finally have."

Check out the Thunder Run bedding at HorseBedding4Kids.com.

Checking with the manager, they expect "Thunder Run" to sell out quickly based upon the popularity of the bathroom accessories (Band of Thunder).

Have a great time shopping and let the Thunder Roll, er - um, I mean, let the Thunder Run!
