Mister's Bedtime Prayer

I know I already blogged today, but I just finished up Mister's bedtime routine with him and decided that I had to post his bedtime prayer that he said tonight. It was too cute. We talk with him a lot about how to pray and why it's important to pray to Heavenly Father and he's been getting really good at it lately. We've told him that Heavenly Father is like a best friend and that he should talk to him (by praying) often and tell him what he's thinking about. Tonight's was a funny mish-mosh of lots of topics:

"Dear Heavenly Father, thank you for this day. Thank you for Jesus. Please bless the food. Bless Daddy, bless Mommy, bless Pumpkin, bless Mrs. Lloyd (his preschool teacher). Bless my McQueen, help us to be kind, help us be obedient, help us choose the right. Bless the submarine, bless that I can ride the submarine, bless the rocket ship, bless that I can ride the rocket ship. Help us to don't yell at Matthew in the car. Thank you for Jesus. Ok, goodbye. In the name of Jesus Christ, amen."

I'm sure I left out a thing or two, but this was the bulk of it. I have no idea where he came up with the rocket ship/submarine/yelling at Matthew thing. And we ate hours ago.... It was just too cute not to share.
