"White Hair"
One day, a girl walk to her mother and look
at her mother's hair and sadly said: "Why
are some of your hair white, mom?"
The mother replied, "Well, every time that
you do something wrong and make me cry
or unhappy, one of my hairs turns white.
The girl thought about this revelation a while,
and then said, "Momma, how come *all* of
grandma's hairs are white?"

"Legalese"
On the first day of school, a first grader handed
his teacher a note from his mother. The note
read, "The opinions expressed by this child
are not necessarily those of his parents."

"Sucking Thumb"
A boy had reached four without giving up
the habit of sucking his thumb, though his
mother had tried everything from bribery
to reasoning to painting it with lemon juice
to discourage the habit.
Finally she tried threats, warning her son that,
"If you don't stop sucking your thumb, your
stomach is going to blow up like a balloon."
Later that day, walking in the park, mother
and son saw a pregnant woman sitting on
a bench.
The four-year-old considered her gravely for
a minute, then spoke to her saying, "Uh-oh . . .
I know what *you've* been doing."
