Short Story: The Pledge of Allegiance
My son decided to say the supper time pray yesterday because his sister was stalling so he figured he would bail her out.
He cleared his 7 year old throat and with his head bowed and his hands clasped he said...
"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the nine states of America..."
I stopped him and said, I think you mean the United States of America.
And he said "No I mean nine. That's what my teacher says everyday."
Still laughing.

You should ask him if she specified which nine! Haha! I love kids' selective hearing!
That is the funniest thing EVER!!! I love that instead of correcting him for praying the pledge of allegiance you corrected him about the nine states! HAHA!!!
out of the mouths of babes...lol
Hilarious! This was fantastic! I love how kids mangle the pledge ... and apparently teachers too!
Hilarious!! Kids do find their own ways of doing that pledge.
