A little boy's prayer

Jill told me on the way home from school that it's the first of October today. 

Matt piped in, "God made it October, mumma! I'll say a prayer to him to thank him."  He paused for a moment and then started solemnly reciting:

"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.  Amen."

I almost drove straight off the road.  It was just like Bethany from National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation.  That's my boy!
