Easter Fun
April 15, 2001
Missed Out It was Palm Sunday and Sue's five year old son had to stay home from church, with a neighbor, because of strep throat. When the family returned home carrying palm branches, he asked what they were for. His mother explained, "People held them over Jesus' head as he walked by." "Wouldn't you know it," the boy fumed, "The one Sunday I don't go, Jesus shows up!"
Words of Wisdom Words of Wisdom from Small Children No matter how hard you try, you can't baptize cats. When your mom is mad at your dad, don't let her brush your hair. If your sister hits you, don't hit her back. They always catch the second person. Never ask your 3-year-old brother to hold a tomato. You can't trust dogs to watch your food. Reading what people write on desks can teach you a lot. Don't sneeze when someone is cutting your hair. Puppies still have bad breath even after eating a Tic Tac. Never hold a Dustbuster and a cat at the same time. School lunches stick to the wall. You can't hide a piece of broccoli in a glass of milk. The best place to be when you are sad is in Grandma's lap
"Best Ever?" It was Easter Sunday Morning and the pastor had launched into one of his "Best Ever" messages. He was about half done, at the 45-minute mark and just getting to the "good part," when a member of his congregation died. Rushing to his office, he dialed 911. Unfortunalely, when the ambulance arrived, the paramedics carried out 51 people before they finally got the right one!
