Explaination ~God~
Written by 8 year old, Danny Dutton

The Seagull
A mother was at the beach with her children when her four-year old ran up to her, grabbed her hand, and led her to the shore, where a seagull lay dead in the sand.
"Mommy, what happened to him?"
the child asked.
"He died and went to Heaven."
the mom replied.

The child thought a moment and then said,
"Did God throw him back down?"

Poor Preacher
After the church service, a little boy told the pastor:
"When grow up, I'm going to give you some money."
"Well, thank you," the pastor replied, "but why?"
"Because my Daddy says you're the poorest preacher we've ever had."

Just Pray What You Hear Mommy Pray
A mother invited some people to dinner.
At the table, she turned to their six-year old daughter and said,
"Would you like to say the blessing?"
"I wouldn't know what to say," the girl replied.
The wife answered:
"Just say what you hear Mommy say."
The daughter bowed her head and said,
"Lord, why on earth did I invite all these people over to dinner?"

Having a Wife
At Sunday School, they were teaching how God created everything, including human beings.
Little Johnny, a child in the kindergarten class, seemed especially intent when they told him how Eve was created out of one of Adam's ribs.

Later in the week his mother noticed him acting as though he was ill, and said, "Johnny, what is the matter?"
Little Johnny responded, pointing to his rib cage,
"It hurts in here. I think I'm going to have a wife!"
