No Prayers Needed At
Grandma's House


Little Johnny and his family were having dinner at his
Grandmother's house. Everyone was seated around the
table as the food was being served. When Little Johnny
received his plate he started eating right away.

"Johnny, wait until we say our prayer."

"I don't have to." The boy replied.

"Of course, you do," his mother insisted. "We always say
a prayer before eating at our house."

"That's at our house," Johnny explained. "But this is
Grandma's house, and
she knows how to cook!"
