TO THE RESCUE
Posted by: bigguyhereagain <bigguyhereagain@...>
Unexpected cold snaps had destroyed the buds on my father's young
peach tree for two years in a row. This spring Dad was ready. He
replanted the sapling in a large box, mounted it on wheels, and
put the tree in the garage whenever the temperature dropped.
One warm April day Dad was wheeling the tree out into the yard,
and stopped to give our dog a drink from the garden hose. A
neighbor watched the scene with amusement. "Frank," he finally
commented, "you're the only man I know who walks his tree and
waters his dog!"

New Fort
My 5 year old son was playing and was busily building up a fort in
the living room. I asked him how his fort was coming along and if
he would like help making it. He said " It's not a fort mom, its a dog
house!" I said " Honey we don't have a dog. " To which he immediately
replied " Well I think its time we got one since we have a dog house!"

Great Tea
One day a young mother was sick in bed at home with her young daughter. The daughter was about four, and always wanting to be of help to her mommy. So while her mother was sick, the young girl got some magazine for her mom, fluffed all the pillows for her, and even made her a cup of tea!
Her mother was very pleased with the tea and asked her daughter how she had ever learned to make tea on her own. Her daughter proudly told her mom, "well mommy, I've seen you do it LOADS of times. Only this time I couldn't find the strainer, so I used the fly swatter instead."
"YOU WHAT!?!?!" her mother cried.
"Oh don't worry mommy, I didn't use the new fly swatter, I used the old one."
