A mother was preparing pancakes for her sons, Kevin, 5, and Ryan, 3. The boys began to argue over who would get the first pancake. Their mother saw the opportunity for a moral lesson. If Jesus were sitting here, He would say, "Let my brother have the first pancake. I can wait." Kevin turned to his younger brother and said, "Ryan, you be Jesus."
A father was at the beach with his children when his
four-year-old son ran up to him, grabbed his hand, and led him to the
shore, where a seagull lay dead in the sand. "Daddy, what happened to
him?" the son asked. "He died and went to Heaven," the dad replied.
A wife invited some people to dinner. At the table, she
turned to their six-year-old daughter and said, Would you like to say
the blessing?" "I wouldn't know what to say," the girl replied. "Just
say what you hear Mommy say," the wife answered. A mother was teaching her three-year-old The Lord's Prayer.
For several evenings at bedtime, the child repeated it after the mother.
Then one night the child was ready to solo. The mother listened with
pride to the carefully enunciated words, right up to the end. A little boy opened the big and old family Bible with
fascination, and looked at the old pages as he turned them. Suddenly,
something fell out of the Bible, and he picked it up and looked at it
closely. It was an old leaf from a tree that had been pressed in between
the pages. "Momma, look what I found," the boy called out. "What have
you got there, dear?" his mother asked. With astonishment in the young
boy's voice, he answered: Six-year-old Angie and her four-year-old brother Joel
were sitting together in church. Joel giggled, sang, and talked out
loud. Finally, his big sister had enough. "You're not supposed to talk
out loud in church." "Why? Who's going to stop me?" Joel asked. A father was reading Bible stories to his young son.
He read, "The man named Lot was warned to take his wife and flee out
of the city, but his wife looked back and was turned to salt." A three-year-old boy went with his dad to see a litter
of kittens. On returning home, he breathlessly informed his mother,"There
were 2 boy kittens and 2 girl kittens." How did you know?" his mother
asked. "Daddy picked them up and looked underneath," he replied. Another three-year-old put his shoes on by himself. His
mother noticed that the left shoe was on the right foot. She said, "Son,
your shoes are on the wrong feet." On the first day of school, about mid-morning, the kindergarten
teacher said, "If anyone has to go to the bathroom,hold up two fingers." A mother and her young son returned from the grocery
store and began putting away the groceries. The boy opened the box of
animal crackers and spread them all over the table. "What are you doing?"
his mother asked. "The box says not to eat them if the seal is broken"
the boy explained.
