Bubbasbog: You may have already...

...seen this, but I think it is horribly funny. The moral of the tale at the end left me giggling in the bog...

To those of us who have children in our
lives, whether they are our own, grandchildren,
nieces, nephews, or students... here is something to
make you chuckle.

Whenever your children are out of control, you can
take comfort from the thought that even God's
omnipotence did not extend to His own children. A
fter creating heaven and earth, God created Adam
and Eve.

And the first thing he said was "DON'T!"

"Don't what?" Adam replied.

"Don't eat the forbidden fruit." God said.

"Forbidden fruit? We have forbidden fruit?
Hey Eve... we have forbidden fruit!!!!!"

"No Way!"

"Yes way!"

"Do NOT eat the fruit!" said God.

Why"

"Because I am your Father and I
said so!" God replied, wondering why
He hadn't stopped creation after making the
elephants. A few minutes later, God saw
His children having an apple break and
He was angry! "Didn't I tell you not to eat the
fruit?" God asked.

"Uh huh," Adam replied.

"Then why did you?" said the Father.

"I don't know," said Eve.

"She started it!" Adam said.

"Did not!"
"Did too!"

"DID NOT!"

Having had it with the two of them, God ' s punishment
was that Adam and Eve should have children
of their own. Thus the pattern was set and it has
never changed.

BUT THERE IS REASSURANCE IN
THE STORY!

If you have persistently and lovingly tried to
give children wisdom and they haven't taken it, don't be
hard on yourself. If God had trouble raising children,
what makes you think it would be a piece of cake for
you?

THINGS TO THINK
ABOUT!

1. You spend the first two years of their life
teaching them to walk and talk. Then you
spend the next sixteen telling them to sit down
and shut up.

2. Grandchildren are God's reward for not killing
your own children.

3. Mothers of teens now know why some animals
eat their young.

4. Children seldom misquote you. In fact, they
usually repeat word for word what you shouldn't
have said.

5. The main purpose of holding children's parties is to
remind yourself that there are children more awful
than your own.

6. We childproofed our homes, but they are still getting in.

ADVICE FOR THE DAY:
Be nice to your kids. They will choose
your nursing home one day.

AND FINALLY:

IF YOU HAVE A LOT OF TENSION AND YOU
GET A HEADACHE, DO WHAT IT SAYS ON
THE ASPIRIN BOTTLE:

"TAKE TWO ASPIRIN"

AND

"KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN"!!!!!
