September 28, 2000 - Funny Shorties!
Most children's first words are "Mama" or "Daddy." Mine were, "Do I have to use my own money?" ~~Erma Bombeck~~

"Mariah"
by Pamela R. Blaine
My little 3 year old friend, Mariah and her family can usually be found on a Sunday morning about 5 rows back from the front and I can always see her from where I sit at the piano.
Mariah's mother had been working with her children and teaching Mariah about God and why the family goes to church. She had explained to Mariah that we go to church because it is God' house and we go to see God and to learn about Him.
This particular Sunday I watched as I saw Mariah wave at the pastor as he walked up to the front to pray. Our pastor, who loves little children, smiled and waved right back to Mariah.
Later, Mariah came up to her Mother all excited and exclaimed, "Mommy", "Today God waved at me!"
** By the way, did you see God wave at you today?**

"I remember buying a set of black plastic dishes once, after I saw an ad on television where they actually put a blowtorch to them and they emerged unscathed. Exactly one week after I bought them, one of the kids brought a dinner plate to me with a large crack in it. When I asked what happened to it, he said it hit a tree. I don't want to talk about it."

My grandson, Grady who is 5 started kindergarten this year and as all first time students, had to have his shots. As he was standing in line, his mother, Darci, noticed his shirt was out and she asked him to tuck it in. Like all children, he has selective hearing and chose to ignore her. Once again, she said, "Grady, tuck your shirt in. You know Dad wouldn't be happy would he?" Grady replied, "My name isn't Woody, it's Grady. :-)
When he got his shots, he was very unhappy and said that he was never going to get another shot and if he had to, he was going to run away and even if he was "born again" he wasn't going to get shots. Darci said, "Grady, you won't be born again (She knew where he was headed with this one). What made you say that? He said, "You know, like that song "Born Again" :-)
(He learned this song in the children's program for Community Bible Study.)

My 3 year old grandson came to visit, and was very anxious to go swimming in the pool. I told him OK as soon as we eat some lunch. I dished up his plate and he ate a few bites and said I'm full now. As soon as I dished up everyone else's plate I dished up a plate for myself and took one bite, then my grandson said "I think you are full now."

Re: Last week's Scooter Pie story by Chuck Dishno
Its messy eating a Scooter Pie. Instead of eating one, I bought one, a little moppy Lhasa Apso I named Scooter Pie who just celebrated his 12th birthday. He is more delicious than any cookie!
~JB Held
Scooter Pie was hilarious! Thanks for the laugh, Chuck!

Scooter Pie reminded me of the time I went to a job interview and the whole thing seemed awkward to me. I did my best, but couldn't figure out why they were looking at me so strangely until I got out to my car and discovered that my wife's kiss was still planted brightly on my cheek - bright pink lipstick!
