Spending the night with their grandparents, two young boys knelt beside their beds to say their prayers at bedtime. The younger boy began praying at the top of his lungs : "I pray for a bike…I pray for a new DVD…"

His older brother nudged him and said, "Why are you shouting your prayers? God isn't deaf. "

To which the little brother replied, "No, but Grandma is!"
