A small boy is sent to bed by his father. Five minutes later.... "Da-ad...." "What? "I'm thirsty. Can you bring drink of water?" "No. You had your chance. Lights out." Five minutes later: "Da-aaaad....." "WHAT?" "I'm THIRSTY. Can I have a drink of water??" "I told you NO!" If you ask again, I'll have to spank you!!" Five minutes later...... "Daaaa-aaaad....." "WHAT!" "When you come in to spank me, can you bring a drink of water?" ________________________________________________ An exasperated mother, whose son was always getting into mischief, finally asked him, "How do you expect to get into Heaven?" The boy thought it over and said, "Well, I'll run in and out and in an out and keep slamming the door until they say, 'For Heaven's sake, Dylan, come in or stay out!'" _________________________________________________ One summer evening during a violent thunderstorm a mother was tucking her son into bed. She was about to turn off the light when he asked with a tremor in his voice, "Mommy, will you sleep with me tonight?" The mother smiled and gave him a reassuring hug. "I can't dear," she said. "I have to sleep in Daddy's room." A long silence was broken at last by his shaky little voice: "The big sissy." _________________________________________________ When I was six months pregnant with my third child, my three year old came into the room when I was just getting ready to get into the shower. She said, Mommy, you are getting fat!" I replied, "Yes, honey, remember Mommy has a baby growing in her tummy" "I know," she replied, but what's growing in your fanny?" ________________________________________________ One day a teacher read the story Chicken Little to her class. She came to the part of the story where Chicken Little tried to warn the farmer. She read, ".... and so Chicken Little went up to the farmer and said, "The sky is falling, the sky is falling!" The teacher paused then asked the class, "And what do you think that farmer said?" One little girl raised her hand and said, "I think he said: '"I can't believe it! A talking chicken!'" The teacher was unable to teach for the next 10 minutes! |

[slm] :-/ :-/ :-/ Thanks Kathy! These are hilarious! A couple weeks ago, I was babysitting my friend's 4 year old daughter for the weekend, while she was out of town. The first night, I told her she will be sleeping in my mommy's room. Her lips trembled and she asked "Why can't I sleep with you?" I said "No sweety, I gotta sleep with my husband, he will be all alone!" She said thoughtfully, "Well, why can't your husband sleep with your mommy and I will sleep with you!" I couldn't stop laughing :) Maliha [wlm] |
