9th April 2012 Truth Out Of The Mouths Of Kids

** Always tell the truth
I was nervous the night my husband and I took our three young sons to a restaurant for the first time. My husband ordered a bottle of wine with the meal. When the waitress brought it, our children became quiet as she began the ritual uncorking. She poured a small amount for me to taste, at that moment, our six-year-old piped up, "Mum drinks a lot more than that."

** At School

Mother: 'Why are you home from school so early?' Son: 'I was the only one who could answer a question.'

Mother: 'Oh, really? What was the question?'

Son: 'Who threw the blackboard duster at the teacher?'

** Going straight?

Jasper Barnett, a young lad from St. Alban's, England was asked by his teacher to spell the word 'straight.' Jasper did so without error.

'Well done!' smiled the teacher, 'Now, Jasper, what does it mean?'

'Without water in it!' responded Jasper immediately.

** Newspaper Boy

A newspaper boy was standing on the corner with a large pile of papers, shouting, 'Read all about it. Twenty five people cheated. Twenty five people cheated.'

Intrigued, a man walked over, bought a paper, and checked the front page. What he saw was yesterday's paper. The man said,
'Hey, this is an old paper, where's the story about the big swindle?'

The newspaper boy ignored him and went on yelling out, 'Read all about it. Twenty six people cheated.'
