Live Well, Laugh Often, Love Much!

"Love makes the world go round;
it's laughter that keeps us from getting dizzy."

---unknown


THE WEDDING A little boy was in a relative's wedding. As he was coming down the aisle he would take two steps, stop, and turn to the crowd, alternating between bride's side and groom's side. While facing the crowd, he would put his hands up like claws and roar . .. so it went, step, step, ROAR, step, step, ROAR, all the way down the aisle. As you can imagine, the crowd was near tears from laughing by the time he reached the altar.

The little boy, however, became distressed at all the laughing and began to cry. When asked what was the matter, the child sniffed, "I was just being the Ring Bear."


WHAT EXACTLY IS MARRIAGE?

"Marriage is when you get to keep your girl and don't have to give her back to her parents" -Eric, AGE 6

"When somebody's been dating for a while, the boy might propose to the girl. He says to her, 'I'll take you for a whole life, or at least until we have kids and get divorced, but you got to do one particular thing for me.' Then she says yes, but she's wondering what the thing is and whether it's naughty or not. She can't wait to find out." -Anita, AGE 9

HOW DOES A PERSON DECIDE WHOM TO MARRY?

"You flip a nickel, and heads means you stay with him and tails means you try the next one." -Kelly, AGE 9

"My mother says to look for a man who is kind....That's what I'll do....I'll find somebody who's kinda tall and handsome." -Carolyn, AGE 8

CONCERNING THE PROPER AGE TO GET MARRIED:

"Eighty-four Because at that age, you don't have to work anymore, and you can spend all your time loving each other in your bedroom." -Carolyn, AGE 8

"Once I'm done with kindergarten, I'm going to find me a wife" -Bert, AGE 5

HOW DID YOUR MOM AND DAD MEET?

"They were at a dance party at a friend's house. Then they went for a drive, but their car broke down...It was a good thing, because it gave them a chance to find out about their values." -Lottie, AGE 9

"My father was doing some strange chores for my mother. They won't tell me what kind." -Jeremy, AGE 8

WHAT DO MOST PEOPLE DO ON A DATE?

"On the first date, they just tell each other lies, and that usually gets them interested enough to go for a second date." -Martin, AGE 10

"Many daters just eat pork chops and french fries and talk about love." -Craig, AGE 9

WHEN IS IT OKAY TO KISS SOMEONE?

"You should never kiss a girl unless you have enough bucks to buy her a ring and her own VCR, 'cause she'll want to have videos of the wedding." -Allan, AGE 10

"Never kiss in front of other people. It's a big embarrassing thing if anybody sees you....If nobody sees you, I might be willing to try it with a handsome boy, but just for a few hours." -Kally, AGE 9

THE GREAT DEBATE: IS IT BETTER TO BE SINGLE OR MARRIED?

"You should ask the people who read Cosmopolitan" -Kirsten, AGE 10

"It's better for girls to be single but not for boys. Boys need somebody to clean up after them" -Anita, AGE 9

"It gives me a headache to think about that stuff. I'm just a kid. I don't need that kind of trouble." -Will, AGE 7


Noah

I was listening this morning to preacher named Jack Deere who tells about the time he went to a school to discuss the Bible with 11 and 12 year olds. He thought that would be a pretty cushy assignment. How hard can it be answering questions from kids.

Well, the first question was "why did God create the devil" and it got worse from there. They asked him every imponderable from the dawn of time. After 45 minutes he was ready to cut his visit short because his nerves were fraying badly.

From the back of the room came a young voice: "I'd like to know what Noah and his family did while they were on the ark."

In exasperation, Deere said, "They fished!"

Another voice pops up, "well they couldn't have fished for very long..."

Deere: "Why's that?"

"Well, they only had two worms!"

God bless the children!

to her five year old granddaughter:

Child: Grandma, it's very said about Jesus isn't it ?

Grandma: Yes, dear.

Child: They put him on a cross, didn't they ?

Grandma: Yes, dear.

Child: They used pins to stick Him on and it must have hurt an awful lot.

Long silence.....
