Ever notice how a 4 year old's voice is louder than 200 adult voices?
Several years ago, I returned home from a trip just when a storm hit
with
crashing thunder and severe lightning. As I came into my bedroom about
2
a.m., I found my two children in bed with my wife, Karey, apparently
scared
by the loud storm. I resigned myself to sleep in the guest bedroom that
night. The next day, I talked to the children, and explained that it
was
O.K. to sleep with Mom when the storm was bad, but when I was expected
home,
please don't sleep with Mom that night. They said OK. After my next
trip
several weeks later, Karey and the children picked me up in the terminal
at
the appointed time. Since the plane was late, everyone had come into
the
terminal to wait for my plane's arrival, along with hundreds of other
folks
waiting for their arriving passengers. As I entered the waiting area,
my
son saw me, and came running shouting, "Hi, Dad! I've got some good
news!"
As I waved back, I said loudly, "What's the good news?" "Nobody slept
with
Mommy while you were away this time!" Alex shouted. The airport became
very quiet, as everyone in the waiting area looked at Alex, then turned
to
me, and then searched the rest of the area to see if they could figure
out
exactly who his Mom was.
--------------------------------------------
An acquaintance of mine who is a physician told this story about her
--------------------------------------------
then 4
--------------------------------------------
yr. old daughter. On the way to preschool, the doctor had left her
stethoscope on the car seat, and her little girl picked it up and began
playing with it. 'Be still, my heart,' thought my friend, 'my daughter
wants
to follow in my footsteps!' Then the child spoke into the instrument:
"Welcome to McDonald's. May I take your order?"
--------------------------------------------
A certain little girl, when asked her name, would reply, "I'm Mr.
--------------------------------------------
Sugarbrown's daughter. "Her mother told her this was wrong, she must
--------------------------------------------
say,
"I'm Jane Sugarbrown." The Vicar spoke to her in Sunday School, and
said,
"Aren't you Mr. Sugarbrown's daughter?" She replied, "I thought I was,
but
mother says I'm not."
--------------------------------------------
A little girl asked her mother, "Can I go outside and play with the
--------------------------------------------
boys?
--------------------------------------------
"Her mother replied, "No, you can't play with the boys, they're too
rough."
The little girl thought about it for a few moments and asked, "If I can
find a smooth one, can I play with him?"
--------------------------------------------
A Sunday school teacher asked her little children, as they were on the
--------------------------------------------
way
--------------------------------------------
to church service, "And why is it necessary to be quiet in church?" One
bright little girl replied, "Because people are sleeping."
------------------------------------------
A the beginning of a children's sermon, one girl came up to the altar
------------------------------------------
wearing a beautiful dress. As the children were sitting down around the
------------------------------------------
pastor, he leaned over and said to the girl, "That is a very pretty
dress.
Is it your Easter dress?" The girl replied almost directly into the
pastor's clip-on mike, "Yes, and my Mom says it's a bitch to iron."

If you can't learn to do something well, learn to enjoy doing it
poorly.
