LOL......that's NOT where I thought that was going. But....out of the mouth of babes.A Grandpa Story to Be Proud of!
Last week, I took my grandchildren to a restaurant.
My 8-year-old grandson asked if he could say grace.
As we bowed our heads he said, "God is good, God is great. Thank you for the food, & I would thank you even more if Grandpa gets us ice cream for dessert. And liberty & justice for all. Amen!"
Along with the laughter from the other customers nearby, I heard a woman remark, "That's what's wrong with this country. Kids today don't even know how to pray. Fancy asking God for ice cream! Why I never!"
Hearing this, my grandson burst into tears & asked me, "Did I do it wrong Grandpa? Is God mad at me?"
After I assured him that he had done a terrific job & that God was certainly not mad at him, an elderly gentleman approached the table.
He winked at my grandson & said, "I happen to know that God thought that was a great prayer."
"Really?" my grandson asked.
"Cross my heart," the man replied.
Then, in a theatrical whisper, he added (indicating the woman whose remark had started this whole thing), "Too bad she never asks God for ice cream A little ice cream is sometimes good for the soul."
Naturally, I bought my grandchildren ice cream at the end of the meal.
My grandson stared at his ice cream for a moment, & then he did something I will remember the rest of my life.
He picked up his sundae &, without a word, walked over & placed it in front of the woman.
With a big smile he told her,
"Here, this is for you, you grouchy old bitch. Shove it up your arse !"
Kind of brings a tear to your eye, doesn't it ?
