An acquaintance of mine who is a physician told this story about her
then four-year-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 you order?"

A mother was preparing pancakes for her sons, Kevin, 5, Ryan, 3. The
boys began to argue over who would get the first pancake. Their mother
saw the opportunity for a moral lesson.
"If Jesus were sitting here, He would say, 'Let my brother have the
first pancake. I can wait."
Kevin turned to his younger brother and said, "Ryan, you be Jesus!"

A student was asked to list the 10 Commandments in any order. His

A father was at the beach with his children when the four-year-old son
ran up to him, grabbed his hand, and led him to the shore, where a
seagull lay dead in the sand.
"Daddy, what happened to him?" the son asked.
"He died and went to Heaven," the dad replied.
The boy thought a moment and then said, "Did God throw him back down?"

After the church service a little boy told the pastor, "When I grow
up, I'm going to give you some money."
"Well, thank you," the pastor replied, "but why?"
"Because my daddy says you're one of the poorest preachers we've ever
had."

A wife invited some people to dinner. At the table, she turned to
their six-year-old daughter and said, "Would you like to say the
blessing?"
"I wouldn't know what to say," the girl replied.
"Just say what you hear Mommy say," the wife answered.
The daughter bowed her head and said, "Lord, why on earth did I invite
all these people to dinner?"
