"Nobody say that was a good prayer!"

Often times when one of the kids pray at night and we can tell that they are really thinking about their prayer and what they are saying we praise them and tell them "That was a good prayer!" Well tonight before family prayer we discovered an absolute disaster in the upstairs bedrooms. So after tidying up we knelt for family prayer and Dad said it. In his prayer he prayed that we would take care of our things and clean up after ourselves etc. etc. (I once learned that if there is a message you need to relay, praying about it out loud will help to convey it!) Well the prayer laid it all out there! After we finished it was silent. Then Marisa piped up and said, "Nobody say that was a good prayer!!" Apparently she was listening, and she didn't like what she heard! What a gem!!!
