Not thankful for.....

Orin has had me help him say his prayers for a very long time. The other night at dinner it was his turn to pray. I asked him to try and say the prayer by himself. So he did, while whispering to me the whole time what he was going to say.
He started the prayer about three different times. He first said things that he was thankful for, like the food and the table and chairs. Then he went on to say the things he wasn't thankful for, which included ants and snails. Then he whispered to me that he was going to say roly-poly's but that he was going to whisper it so Eadie didn't hear, since she likes them.
The prayer lasted a long time but it was fun to listen to him. I don't think I've ever heard someone pray about things they're not thankful for.
