FROM THE MOUTHS OF BABES….
July 14th, 2005
A kindergarten teacher was observing her classroom of children while
they drew. She would occasionally walk around to see each child’s
artwork. As she got to one little girl who was working diligently,
she asked what the drawing was. The girl replied, “I’m drawing
God.” The teacher paused and said, “but no one knows what God looks
like. “Without missing a beat, or looking up from her drawing the
girl replied, “They will in a minute.”

A Sunday school teacher was discussing the Ten Commandments with her
5 and 6 year-olds. After explaining the commandment “Honor thy Father
and thy mother,” she asked, “Is there a commandment that teaches us
how to treat our brothers and sisters?” Without missing a beat one
little boy answered, “Thou shall not kill.”

An honest 7-year-old admitted calmly to her parents that Billy Brown
had kissed her after class. “How did that happen?,” gasped her mother.
“It wasn’t easy,” admitted the young lady, “but three girls helped me
catch him.”

One day a little girl was sitting and watching her mother do the
dishes at the kitchen sink. She suddenly noticed that her mother had
several strands of white hair sticking out in contrast to her
brunette hair. She looked at her mother and inquisitively asked, “Why
are some of your hairs white, Mom?” Her mother replied, “Well, every
time that you do something wrong and make me cry or unhappy, one of
my hairs turns white.” The little girl thought about this revelation
for a while and then said, “Momma, how come ALL of grandma’s hairs
are white?”

A 3-year-old went with his dad to see a litter of kittens. On
returning home, he breathlessly informed his mother that there were
two boy kittens and two girl kittens. “How did you know?” his mother
asked. “Daddy picked them up and looked underneath,” he replied.
“I think it’s printed on the bottom.”

The children had all been photographed, and the teacher was trying to
persuade them each to buy a copy of the group picture. “Just think
how nice it will be to look at it when you are all grown up and say:
“There’s Jennifer; she’s a lawyer, or That’s Michael. He’s a doctor.”
A small voice at the back of the room rang out, “And there’s the
teacher. She’s dead”.

A teacher was giving a lesson on the circulation of the blood. Trying
to make the matter clearer, he said, “Now, boys, if I stood on my
head, the blood, as you know, would run into it, and I would turn red
in the face.” “Yes, sir,” the boys said. “Then why is it that
while I am standing upright in the ordinary position, the blood
doesn’t run into my feet?” A little fellow shouted, “‘Cause yer feet
ain’t empty.”

For weeks, a 6-year old lad kept telling his first-grade teacher about
the baby brother or sister that was expected at his house. One day the
mother allowed the boy to feel the movements of the unborn child. The
6-year old was obviously impressed, but he made no comment.
Furthermore, he stopped telling his teacher about the impending
event. The teacher finally sat the boy on her lap and said, “Tommy,
whatever became of that baby brother or sister you were expecting at
home?” Tommy burst into tears and confessed, “I think Mommy ate it!”

On the first day of school, the Kindergarten teacher said, “If anyone
has to go to the bathroom, hold up two fingers.” A little voice from
the back of the room asked, “How will that help?”
