Don't Think This One's Going to Save You
Max was trying to convince me to give him a snack this morning. This is his regular rhythm lately: eat breakfast...2 or 3 times, and then ask for a snack.
He asked, "Mama, can I have a nack when we get home?"
"You can finish that banana muffin from breakfast," I told him remembering I had left it on the table in the mad dash to school.
"No...I don't want the nana muffin. I want a nack," he responded rather matter-of-factly.
"Well, finish the muffin and I'll get you a snack."
There was a brief pause after which I heard him pray, "Dear Jesus, help me not to have to eat my nana muffin today. Amen. Father, Son, Holy Pirit. Amen."

LOVE it!!! Definitely a great example you've shown him. :)
My 5 yo son wants to eat all the time. It is wearing me out. And he has not tried cute prayers to win me over. ;)
Oh my goodness! How could you not let his prayer come true? That's so sweet!
