An honest prayer

We continue in our attempts to help McKay learn to pray. Tonight we sat down at the table to offer a blessing on our Little Ceasar's (which might be asking too much to begin with). McKay was served first and already had a mouth full of pizza by the time we were ready to offer the prayer. Nevertheless, he launched into a meal prayer by himself and said his typical, "Thank you for Nana, thank you for Papa, thank you for Becky....pause....(usually this is where the promptings begin). I suggested "Thank you for the food" but instead of repeating as he usually does, from across the table with his mouth stuffed full of pizza I heard a hearty, "Mmmm-Hmmm"!

Yes, tonight we were all very thankful for the pizza.
