NEVER ARGUE WITH A CHILD
A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales.
The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human
because even though it was a very large mammal its throat was very small.
The little girl stated that Jonah was swallowed by a whale.
Irritated, the teacher reiterated that a whale could not swallow a human; it was
physically impossible.
The little girl said, "When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah."
The teacher asked, "What if Jonah went to hell?"
The little girl replied, "Then you ask him."

A Kindergarten teacher was observing her classroom of children while they drew.
She would occasionally walk around to see each child's work. 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 five and
six year olds. After explaining the commandment to "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
(the oldest of a family) answered, "Thou shall not kill."

One day a little girl was sitting and watching her mother do the dishes at the
kitchen sink. She suddenly noticed that her mother
has several strands of white hair sticking out in contrast on her brunette head.
She looked at her mother and inquisitively asked,
"Why are some of your hairs white, Mom?" Her mother replied,
"Well, every time 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?"

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 grownup 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, she said, "Now, class, if I stood on my head,
the blood, as you know, would run into it,
and I would turn red in the face." "Yes," the class 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 your feet ain't empty."

The children were lined up in the cafeteria of a Catholic elementary school for
lunch. At the head of the table was a large pile of apples. The nun made a note,
and posted on the apple tray: "Take only ONE. God is watching." Moving further
along the lunch line, at the other end of the table was a large pile of
chocolate chip cookies. A child had written a note, "Take all you want... God is
watching the apples. "
Jb, that was really cute. :) Some of those remind me of my oldest daughter. ;D
She is always saying things like that. She looked at my dad one day and asked him, 'Grandpa, how come you don't have any hair on the top of your head? Did some of your hair runaway or something?' My dad could do nothing but laugh.
