A mother in Pittsburgh tells of having dinner with her little son and daughter. It had been a long, trying day at home, and her husband was still at the office. Both children were fussy and didn't want to eat, and her patience had reached it's limit. She looked up and sighed, "Oh, God, help me with these children." Immediately her four-year-old daughter bowed her head and was silent. The mother was delighted, thinking the girl was asking God to help her be good. But then the girl looked up at her and said, "I just asked Him not to help you." from "Faith, Hope and Hilarity: The Child's Eye View of Religion" by Dick Van Dyke
