Jackson's Prayer

On the way home from Cole's birthday dinner, we passed a stopped bus on Shadow Pines.
Andi:  Why did that bus crash?
Mom:  It didn't crash, it's just dropping people off so they can walk home.
Ryan:  Why?
Dad:  Some people don't have a car.  We are very blessed to have a car.
Andi:  Why don't some peoples have a car?
Jackson:  Because maybe they got in an accident and they don't have money to fix it.
Mom:  Or maybe they just don't have the money to buy a car.
Andi:  We have a car.
Dad:  Yep, we are very blessed.
SILENCE.....
Jackson:
Dear Heavenly Father, thank you for all of our stuff.  For a good day.  For all our friends.  Thank you for our family.  I hope everybody in other countries will be alive.  But not when they're old.  Thank you for all the stuff we have that you made for us.  And thank you for making us.  And I hope we have a good day tomorrow.  In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
