Other funnies, mostly about praying

Inge trots back to her bedroom after a brief session in the bathroom with Daddy, and in a voice of surprised delight announces, "Well, look at that! There's another spanking stick right here!"

Lewis is praying a lot right now. He really likes to pray. In fact, it's all Peter can do to beat him to the punch at meals. He says, "Okay, let's pray," and Lewis is off like a shot: "Heavenly Father, thank you for this food, and please forgive us for disobeying, and please help us to obey in all things, Amen."

That's his standard prayer. Of course, it's not nearly that clear. Lewis's enunciation leaves much to be desired, and what he actually says is more like this: "Heeeehnee Faaahhheh, heh-heh feh theh foooonh, and pleeh 'give unh for dih-oh-beh-ing, and pleeh heh unh to obey in all things, Amen.

At evening prayers, he gets prompted a lot more. Such as like this:
Peter, at the end of a long litany of family members; "And for Uncle Tim and Aunt Jill."
Lewis: "And Un-unh Tim and Anh Jill." pause "And for Jay-mamie."

Uncle Jay and his tractors made a lasting impression.
