Census Taker
Posted by: bigguyhereagain <bigguyhereagain@...>
The doorbell rang and the little girl ran to open the
door. In the doorway stood a man with a clipboard. He explained he was
from the Census Bureau and wanted to know how many were
in the family.
Coming over, drying her hands on her apron, the mother said,
"Let's see. There's me and my husband, and my children
Tracy, Katherine, Amanda, Alfred, Benjamin--"
The census taker interrupted, saying, "I'm not interested
in the names.
The numbers will be enough."
The little girl pitched in. "We don't use numbers.
We haven't run out of names yet!"

~~~ A Little Girl Wants To Go ~~~
A little nine year old girl was in church with her mother when she started feeling ill.
"Mommy" she said "Can we leave now?"
"No" her mother replied.
"Well, I think I have to throw up!"
"Then go out the front door and around to the back of the church and throw up behind a bush."
In about two minutes the little girl returned to her seat.
"Did you throw up?" her mother asked.
"Yes" the little girl replied.
"Well, how could you have gone all the way to the back of the church and return so quickly?"
"I didn't have to go out of the church, Mommy" the little girl replied, "They have a box next to the front door that says 'for the sick'."

~~~ The Broken Doll ~~~
Little Emily, the minister's daughter, ran into the house, crying as though her heart would break.
"What's wrong, dear?" asked the pastor.
"My doll! Billy broke it!" she sobbed.
"How did he break it, Emily?"
"I hit him over the head with it."

~~~ Daddy Said ~~~
The little boy greeted his grandmother with a hug and said "I'm so happy to see you grandma. Now maybe daddy will do the trick he has been promising us."
The grandmother was curious. "What trick is that my dear" she asked.
The little boy replied "I heard daddy tell mommy that he would climb the doggone walls if you came to visit us again."
Have a Blessed Day
