Wilson's prayers

Wilson has always been good about praying before meals, but we have always led the prayers. Lately we have asked him to lead his prayers and he picked right up on our usual, "Dear Jesus/God, thank you for this day and thank you for our food and please use it to nourish our bodies. Please God bless Mommy, Daddy, Wilson and Evelyn, etc." We've started to ask him to also list those things he is thankful for or just to say what is on his mind. This can be amusing.

One night after eating Kevin's leftover (early) birthday cake from a celebration in Storm Lake, Kevin had to cut Wilson off so he wouldn't eat too much, which he found devastating. That night in prayer in listing his blessings he said, "Thank you cake Daddy cry." I think he was telling on Kevin.

A few days ago he said, "Thank you grandma tractor" (refer to Grandma camp post below). I'm assuming there was an implied comma there.

Here he is praying this morning before breakfast...
