A Child's Prayer

Meet Freddy.  He is a hand. He was invented by Grammy Jill.  He is Christopher Robin's best friend.

Prayer over lunch on Sunday was as follows:

"Dear Heavenly Father,

I threw a truck and got fired from my job.  So now I am going to go live on another planet.  I am going to the moon.  Daddy and Freddy is coming with me.  Freddy is a hand.  And that's it. Oh, bless the food.

Amen"


During lunch Freddy called.  He wanted to let Jace know that he had to stay late after church to help clean up. A.K.A.-Daddy needed to sit down and have some lunch before he could be Freddy again.                                                    

Daddy ended up eating the phone after Freddy hung up -- to CR's delight.
This is Freddy back from church and ready to play in CR's amazing world of make-believe. He may only be a hand, but he is treated like a very special and honored family member around these parts! Every time Ryan pulls out his hand and turns on his "Freddy" voice, the look of adoration on Christopher Robin's face is so endearing.

Come play Freddy with us again soon Grammy!  Oh, don't forget to bring Grandma Belle with you too!

If you haven't met Grandma Belle and Freddy yet, next time you see Grammy Jill you need to have her introduce them to you. They are two members of the family you definitely want to meet.
