Welcome to Joy Land~
As I was making this page, I had the window open, for the sun was shining. It's a Small, Small world was Playing Loudly! I heard Laughter, and went to the window! A group of small children were outside, listening to the Music.~Sue
A mother took her three-year-old daughter to church for the first time. The church lights were lowered, and then the choir came down the aisle, carrying lighted candles. All was quiet until the little one started to sing in a loud voice, "Happy Birthday to you, happy birthday to you......"
After listening restlessly to a long and tedious sermon, a 6-year- old boy asked his father what the preacher did the rest of the week. "Oh he's a very busy man," the father replied. "He takes care of church business, visits the sick, ministers to the poor.... And then he has to have time to rest up. Talking in public isn't an easy job, you know. The boy thought about that, then said, "Well, listening ain't easy, either."
I had been teaching my three-year-old daughter, Caitlin, the Lord's Prayer. For several evenings at bedtime she repeated it after me. One night she said she was ready to solo. I listened with pride as she carefully pronounced each word, right up to the end of the prayer."Lead us not into temptation," she prayed, "but deliver us some e-mail."
A grandmother was surprised by her 7 year old grandson one morning. He had made her coffee. She drank what was the worst cup of coffee in her life. When she got to the bottom, there were three of those little green army men in the cup. She said, "Honey, what are the army men doing in my coffee?" Her grandson said, "Grandma, it says on TV - 'The best part of waking up is soldiers in your cup!'"
After church one Sunday morning, a mother Said:"The choir
was awful this morning." The father commented: "The sermon was too long."
Their 7-yr. old daughter added "You've got to admit it was a pretty good show for a dime."
A four-year-old Catholic boy was playing with a four-year-old Protestant girl in a children's pool in the backyard. They splashed each other, got very wet, and decided to take their wet clothes off. The little boy looked at the little girl and said, "Golly, I didn't know there was that much difference between Catholics and Protestants."
