Dreaded Wednesdays - some humor to lighten the day

Most people hate Mondays, over the last year and a half, I have come to hate Wednesdays. So to lighten the mood... here is some humor:

God Created Children
(and in the process grandchildren)

To those of us who have children in our lives, whether they are our own, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, or students… here is something to make you chuckle. Whenever your children are out of control you can take comfort from the thought that even God’s omnipotence did not extend to His own children. After creating heaven and earth, God created Adam and Eve. And the first thing he said was “Don’t”!


“Don’t what?” Adam replied.


“Don’t eat the forbidden fruit.” God said.

“Forbidden fruit? We have forbidden fruit? Hey Eve… we have forbidden fruit!!!”

“No Way!”

“Yes Way!”

“Do NOT eat the fruit!” said God.

“Why?”

“Because I am your Father and I said so!” God replied, wondering why He hadn’t stopped creation after making the elephants. A few minutes later, God saw His children having an apple break and he was angry! “Didn’t I tell you not to eat the fruit?” God asked.

“Uh Huh,” Adam replied.

“Then why did you?” said the Father.

“I don’t know,” said Eve.

“She started it!” Adam said.

“Did not!”

“Did too!”

“DID NOT!”

Having had it with the two of them, God’s punishment was that Adam and Eve should have children of their own. Thus the pattern was set and it has never changed.

But there is reassurance in the story! If you persistently and lovingly tried to give children wisdom and they haven’t taken it, don’t be hard on yourself. If God had trouble raising children, what makes you think it would be a piece of cake for you!

That was pretty funny.

I only have one question:
"What's an apple "reak" ?
I guessed it was break. But then again I'm a pretty "fart smeller".

Ahh.. it is so nice to be able to edit something that is already posted. Amazing how many times I read that and did not catch the mistake.

Though I would like to know how someone can be a PRETTY fart smeller? I have yet to have any male in my household put out a fart that allowed you to stay in the room with them. UGH. So I may be pretty, but I'm not staying around to smell any farts! ;-)
