Childhood Wisdom
While leading a tour of kindergarten students through our hospital, I
overheard a conversation between one little girl and an x-ray
technician.
"Have you ever broken a bone?" he asked.
"Yes," the girl replied.
"Did it hurt?"
"No."
"Really? Which bone did you break?"
"My sister's arm."
One evening, a four-year-old child came in while his mom was setting the
table for supper. Quite surprisingly, he asked if he could help. His
mother said, "No, but I appreciate your asking."
The child responded, "Well, I appreciate your saying no."
A father went to pick up his daughter from school and happened
to overhear her talking to one of her friends.
She said, "I'm really worried. My dad works 16 to 17 hours a day to
give me a really nice home and good food. My Mom spends a lot time
cleaning the house and cooking. I'm worried *sick*."
Her friend said, "What have you got to worry about? It sounds like
you've got it made!"
The daughter shook her head and said, "What if they try to escape?"
