Why We Love Kids... A small boy is sent to bed by his father. Five minutes later, Da-ad... What? I'm thirsty. Can you bring me a drink of water? No. You had your chance. Lights out. Five minutes later... Da-aaad.... What?? I'm Thirsty! Can I have a drink of water? I told you NO! If you ask again I'll have to spank you! Five minutes later......DAAAA-AAAAD...... WHAT!! When you come in to spank me...can you bring a drink of water? ******************** One summer evening, during a violent thunderstorm, a mother was tucking a small boy into bed. As she was about to turn off the light he asked with a tremor in his voice, Mommy, will you sleep with me tonight? The mother smiled and gave him a reassuring hug. I can't dear, she said, I have to sleep in Daddy's room. A long silence was broken at last by his shaky little voice: The big sissy. ******************** During the Sunday morning service all the children were invited to come forward. One little girl was wearing a particularly pretty dress, and as she sat down, the pastor leaned over and said, That is a very pretty dress. Is it your Easter dress? The little girl replied, directly into the pastors clip-on microphone, Yes, and my mommy says it's a bitch to iron. ******************** Finding one of her students making faces at the others on the playground, Mrs. Smith stopped quickly to reprove the child. Smiling sweetly, the teacher said, Bobby, when I was a child, I was told tha if I made ugly faces, it would freeze and it would stay like that. Bobby looked up and replied, Well, Mrs. Smith, you can't say you weren't warned.
