Our wonderful 6 year old chose herself to say grace before Thanksgiving today. Her prayer went as follows:
"I am thankful that Mommy, Daddy and I can come here to Grammy's house to eat turkey. Tomorrow I will come and sleep at Grammy's. Then, it will be Christmas! We will open presents. I will get a music box. Surprise! And then, I will go to see The Princess and the Frog. AMEN!"
*Note: This is an ASL to written English translation. You are missing out on all the enthusiasm and "matter of factness" than comes from a 6 year old laying out her plan.
*Second note: My kid is an idiot.

What a sweet Thanksgiving prayer. I love how she's already into Christmas, lol!
I can't wait to take Matt to see the Princess and the Frog. He's rather excited for it- I might take both, but I'm not sure if Nolan would sit through the entire movie.
Kids have a very different way of thinking then adults :)
When my brother and sister and I were little, we tried to rip all the leaves off the bushes and trees in order to make winter to come faster. Because obviously winter = Christmas.
