Big Secret

"New Kitchen"*

*Jolene had been wanting new kitchen cabinets
for a long time, but her husband insisted they
were an extravagance.

Then she went to visit her Mother for two weeks,
and when she returned, she was overjoyed to
find that her husband had surprised her by
installing beautiful new cabinets.

A few days later a neighbor came over to visit
and after admiring the new cabinets, the neighbor
added, "All of us were so glad that the fire your
husband had while you were gone was confined to the kitchen."

"Big Secret"*

*A few years ago we were desperately trying to sell our
house, which was situated on a busy thoroughfare.
Our real estate agent decided to have open-house
inspection nearly every day to promote the sale. We
instructed the children not to talk to anyone about the house.

One evening a man took our seven-year-old daughter
aside and asked if our house had any secrets he should
know. Her first reaction was to smile and ignore his
question. But he became more persistent and, finally,
she confessed there was one secret but she could not tell it to him.

"Now we're getting somewhere," he said. "Tell me the
secret. I promise I won't tell anyone."

She looked him straight in the eye and whispered,
"We have monsters in our sewer."
