One day this last week Daniel was playing with some cars on the kitchen floor. He was driving them across the floor and Doc Hudson when spinning out of control and under the stove. He was far enough under the stove that Daniel couldn't see him. He was very upset. Andy thought this would be a good teaching moment. He told Daniel that when we lose things we should pray and ask Heavenly Father to help us find them. (I wasn't sure this would be the best situation to teach this principle since we all knew exactly where Doc was.) Andy and Daniel proceeded to have a little pray asking for help to find Doc. Then Andy told Daniel they needed a flash light and the fly swatter. In seconds they had Doc out from under the stove. Daniel was very excited!
About 5 minutes later I was loading the dishwasher and Daniel push Doc and McQueen under the dishwasher out of my sight. Then he said, "Oh no! Doc missing. We need to pray!" When I lifted the dishwasher door they were sitting right there. I pointed to them and Daniel said, "No!" Then he put the dishwasher door back down and said, "Doc missing Mom! We pray!" Does this kid learn quick or what?
