Malachi's prayers

Malachi says the funniest prayers ever.  I think he uses prayer time as a soapbox, to kind of just talk about whatever he wants.  So long as he puts "thank you for..." or "please bless..." in front, it's pretty much ok to say. 

Take yesterday mornings as an example.

"Dear Heavenly Father.
Thank you for this day.
Thank you for our great sleep.
Thank you that I can go to school.
Thank you that rug rat and cookie are dead and their spirits go to heavenly father and jesus and so they can help and tell the prophet to go to the temple with the spire and jesus lives at the temple, behind the temple, not behind the temple, that's where the boss of the temple lives, jesus lives at the front and down the stairs and he talks and tells us to go to church, the church of jesus christ of latter day saints, and we go to church and learn about jesus and heavenly father and they tell us to go to the temple.
In the name of jesus christ, amen."

Meanwhile, I'm sitting there shaking with laughter, trying not to let him see.  What a ripper.

(You kinda have to be familiar with the layout of the nz temple and visitors center and temple presidents house to understand what he's talking about, sort of. lol.)

Haha. I'm suspecting that all that specificity comes from his Mom. So you know who to 'blame" :)
