Who Did It?
80 years back, in a small town in the US lived a family
(Mr and Mrs Chris Miller with 7 children) on a farm.
They had their outhouse (toilet of those days) by the
creek.
One day Mr Miller was furious. He called and all the 7
children out and asked them to stand in line. He said,
“Tell me, who pushed the outhouse into the creek?”
No one said a word. Then every one said – Not me, not me.
Mr Miller preached. “Do you know that in this family we
tell only the truth? Let me tell you the story of George
Washington. One day his father gave him and axe. George
wanted to test how sharp the axe is. So he cut the cherry
tree in his court yard. The father called all the children
to the backyard and asked who cut the cherry tree.. All
the children were frightened because that cherry tree was
the pride of the father and years of hard work. But
George raised his hand and said, “I did it Dad.” The Dad
was happy that the boy said the truth though he knew that
he could be punished for his foolish act. So you must tell
the truth irrespective of the consequences. Now tell me
who pushed the outhouse into the creek?”
Little Ben raised his hand and said, “Dad I did it.”
Dad started to spank the son furiously.
Ben yelled, “Wait a minute. You said that George Washington's
father was happy when George said the truth.”
Father, “That is true. But when little George cut the cherry
tree down, his father was not sitting on the tree.”

Sleeping
Years ago, when my grandson Ricardo was five years old, he
came to visit with me. He saw a tree in my neighborhood that
had lost all its leaves during fall and early winter.
“That tree is DEAD!” little Ricardo said, with conviction.
“No, honey,” I assured him. “The tree is sleeping. It will
wake up soon and show us it’s new growth.”
Unconvinced, he crossed his little arms and said, “That tree
is NOT sleeping. But you can pretend if you want to."
