I thought this was cute:

To clarify: This is a forward I received, and did not really happen (to me).

Last  week, I took my children to a  restaurant.
My  six-year-old son asked if he could say  grace.
As  we bowed our heads he said,
"God is good, God is great.
Thank you  for the food, and I would even thank you more
If Mom gets us ice  cream for dessert.
And Liberty and justice for all!  
Amen!"

Along with the laughter from  the other customers nearby,
I heard a woman remark,
"That's what's wrong  with this country.
Kids today don't even know how to pray.
Asking  God for ice cream!
Why, I  never!"

Hearing this, my son burst into  tears and asked me,
"Did I do it wrong?
Is God mad at me?"
As I  held him and assured him that he had done a terrific
job, and God  was certainly not mad at him, an elderly Gentleman approached the  table. He  winked at my son and said,
"I happen to know that God thought that  was a great  prayer."
"Really?" my son  asked.
"Cross my heart," the man  replied.

Then, in a theatrical whisper, he added (indicating the woman whose remark had started this whole  thing), "Too bad she never asks God for ice cream. A little ice  cream is good for the soul  sometimes."

Naturally, I bought my kids ice  cream at the end of the meal.
My son stared at his for a moment, and  then did something
I will remember the rest of my  life.  He  picked up his sundae and, without a word, walked over and placed it  in front of the woman.
With a big smile he told her, "Here, this is  for you.   Ice cream is good for the soul sometimes; and

My soul is good already."
