"OUT OF THE MOUTHS OF BABES"
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: "I think it's Adam's suit!"
=======================================================
The preacher was wired for sound with a lapel mike, and as he preached, he moved briskly about the platform, jerking the mike cord as he went.
Then he moved to one side, getting wound up in the cord and nearly tripping before jerking it again. After several circles and jerks, a little girl in the third pew leaned toward her mother and whispered, "If he gets loose, will he hurt us?"
==============================================================
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.Angie pointed to the back of the church and said, "See those two men standing by the door? They're hushers".
====================================================
The kindergarten teacher was showing her class an encyclopedia page picturing several national flags. She pointed to the American flag and asked, "What flag is this?" A little girl called out, "That's the flag of our country." "Very good," the teacher said. "And what is the name of our country?" "'Tis of thee," the girl said confidently.
=============================================================
After putting her children to bed, a mother changed into old slacks and a droopy blouse and proceeded to wash her hair. As she heard the children getting more and more rambunctious, her patience grew thin. At last she threw a towel around her head and stormed into their room, putting them back to bed with stern warnings. As she left the room, she heard her three-year-old say with a trembling voice, "Who was that?"
==========================================================
Two little boys were visiting their grandfather, and he took them to a restaurant for lunch. They couldn't make up their minds about what they wanted to eat.
Finally the grandfather grinned at the server and said, "Just bring them bread and water." One of the little boys looked up and quavered, "Can I have ketchup on it?"
=============================================================
A new neighbor asked the little girl next door if she had any brothers and sisters.
She replied, "No, I'm the lonely child."
=======================================================
A mother was telling her little girl what her own childhood was like: "We used to skate outside on a pond. I had a swing made from a tire; it hung from a tree in our front yard. We rode our pony. We picked wild raspberries in the woods."
The little girl was wide-eyed, taking this in. At last she said, "I sure wish I'd gotten to know you sooner!"
==============================================================
My grandson was visiting one day when he asked, "Grandma, do you know how you and God are alike?" I mentally polished my halo while I asked, "No, how are we alike?" "You're both old," he replied.
==============================================================
A little girl was diligently pounding away on her father's word processor. She told him she was writing a story. "What's it about?" he asked. "I don't know," she replied. "I can't read."
============================================================
I didn't know if my granddaughter had learned her colors yet, so I decided to test her. I would point out something and ask what color it was. She would tell me, and always she was correct. But it was fun for me, so I continued. At last she headed for the door, saying sagely, "Grandma, I think you should try to figure out some of these yourself!"
============================================================
A ten-year-old, under the tutelage of her grandmother, was becoming quite knowledgeable about the Bible. Then one day she floored her grandmother by asking, "Which Virgin was the mother of Jesus: the Virgin Mary or the King James Virgin?"
===================================================
A Sunday school class was studying the Ten Commandments. They were ready to discuss the last one. The teacher asked if anyone could tell her what it was.
Susie raised her hand, stood tall, and quoted, "Thou shall not take the covers off the neighbor's wife."
=============================================================
I know, I didn't do my blog Saturday or Sunday evenings.. I had grand kids up and just let them take over the computer. (*.*) They can find so much to do on there! Yesterday I was worried about Norman, again his sugar shot UP! No, not quite as high, but it didn't like it by much.. It was 466!!!! Thankfully they put him on the second insulin and it's "fast acting" and got it back down to 260 something.. (which is still high, but A LOT BETTER THAN IN THE 400'S) Anyway, I hope you've had a few extra special and wonderful days! ... We've just been staying in under the air conditioner and enjoying a few of our grand kids... Today when Norman and Abigail came up to pick up Nathan, she came in saying "granddaddy, I am sooo proud of you, the yard looks so good and you've worked so hard out there today!" I know it had to make him feel really good! We have gotten a few garden tomatoes, a few cucumbers (but we don't have but one hill of cucumbers.. we couldn't find anymore, and it don't look like we'll have a bunch of them, sad to say.) we have gotten a few yellow squash, but I "shared" them with Jenna.. but we have more ready.. and we've gotten two white acorn squash, so far.. and we have some pumpkins growing... but the dag on groundhogs have eaten the blooms off all of our beans.. and they won't do anything now with out blooms.. and we have no clue as to how to run the groundhogs off!!! any clues??? ANYWAY, FOUR MORE WORK DAYS THEN I AM OFF FOR NINE DAYS (including weekends) and we are going on a family camping trip to Buckhorne's at Douthat.. (the kids love it there) it will be Norman, Leisa and the kids, Jenna and Seraiye, the two of us and maybe Jeff.. so it will be nice. (*.*) looking forward to relaxing some! Pray for dry weather (at least there) for us for the week of July 25-29... that is all we are staying Norman has another show on the 30th.. which means "we gladly have grandparents duty" (*.*) (*.*)
PRAYING FOR EACH OF YOU AND YOURS!
