Pray for Money

The other day at school, a girl, M, age 4, was setting up a meal with plastic food. She had it all carefully arranged on the table, plates and food everywhere. A mom and her daughter came over, and M asked if they wanted some food. Mom said yes, and M said, "Okay, but first we need to say grace." Mom said, "Okay, but we don't know what to do. Can you show us?"

M said "Sure", and proceeded to grab their hands. She told them to hold hands and close their eyes, and she said grace:

"Dear God, thank you for this food and bless this food and help us not to do mistakes on purpose and deliver us from evil. Amen."

While all this was going on, Rose, 5, was standing next to me. As soon as the grace was finished, she looked at me and said, "I want my money back!"
