"Our loving heavenly Father, please help Oliver and Georgina and all the Kenyans to be not poor; and (this one is going to be in my head) please help...[silence for a few seconds]; and God, please help the swine flu to go away; aaand...please let us go to that restaurant that Dad said we could go to.  [Pause]  It is the one where medieval knights fight one another.  But they don't really fight one another, they just use swords and fight.  [Pause]  Or guns or something, but they are not fighting because they are on the same side, so they don't really fight.  Amen!" -Christian's prayer tonight; he then asked me what Cora's last name was.  I told him McClenahan.  He said he prayed a special prayer for her too.  He said he prayed for her every night.  This is the heart of our son.
