Glenda, 3, was watching her mother put on face cream. “Why are you putting that on your face, Mama?” she asked. “It’s supposed to make me beautiful,” her mother said. “Well,” Glenda blurted out, “they lied!”
Lynsi told her grandmother, “You smell so good! Is that Oil of Old Lady?”
A first grader told his teacher his mother “fixes good food, takes us places and helps us… and she’s the favorite wife of my dad!”
Actual prayers of children!

Did you mean for the giraffe to look like that or was it an accident?
Norma

Instead of letting people die and having to make new ones. why don’t you just keep the ones you have now?
Jane

Who draws the lines around the countries?
Nan

I went to this wedding and they kissed right in church. Is that okay?

Thank you for my baby brother, but what I prayed for was a puppy.
Joyce
- Dear God:
I want to be just like daddy when I get big, but not with so much hair all over.
Sam

I bet it is very hard for you to love all the people in the world. There are only four people in our family and I can never do it.

If you watch me in church Sunday, I’ll show you my new shoes.
Mickey

We read Thomas Edison made light. But in Sunday School, we learned that you did it. So I bet he stole your idea.
Sincerely, Donna
- Dear God:
I do not think anybody could be a better God. And, I’m not just saying this because you are God already.

Maybe Cain and Abel would not kill each other so much if they had their own rooms. It works with my brother.
