"Parental Rules"
A priest at a parochial school, wanting to
point out the proper behavior for church,
was trying to elicit from the youngsters
rules that their parents might give before
taking them to a nice restaurant.
"Don't play with your food," one second
grader cited.
"Don't be loud," said another, and so on.
"And what rule do your parents give you
before you go out to eat?" the priest
inquired of one little boy.
Without batting an eye, the child replied,
"Order something cheap."

"Another Child"
When Diane found out she was pregnant,
she told the good news to anyone who would
listen. But her 4-year-old son overheard some
of her parents' private conversations. One day
when Diane and her 4-year-old were shopping
a woman asked the little boy if he was excited
about the new baby.
"Yes!" the 4-year-old said, "and I know what we
are going to name it, too. If it's a girl we're going
to call her Christina, and if it's another boy we're
going to call it quits!"
