Two Little Trouble Makers

by Zona

 Two little boys, ages 8 and 10, were excessively mischievous. They were always getting into trouble and their parents knew all about it.

 
If any mischief occurred in their town, the two boys were probably involved.

 
The boys' mother heard that a preacher in town had been successful in disciplining children, so she asked if he would speak with her boys.

 
The preacher agreed, but he asked to see them individually. So the mother sent the 8 year old first, in the morning, with the older boy to see the preacher in the afternoon.

 
The preacher, a huge man with a booming voice, sat the younger boy down and asked him sternly, 'Do you know where God is, son?'

 
The boy's mouth dropped open, but he made no response, sitting there wide-eyed with his mouth hanging open.

 
So the preacher repeated the question in an even sterner tone, 'Where is God?'

 
Again, the boy made no attempt to answer. The preacher raised his voice even more and shook his finger in the boy's face and bellowed, 'Where is God?'

 
The boy screamed and bolted from the room, ran directly home and dove into his closet, slamming the door behind him.

 
When his older brother found him in the closet, he asked, 'What happened?'

 
The younger brother, gasping for breath, replied, 'We are in BIG trouble this time,' 
 


 
'GOD is missing, and they think we did it!'

Good Morning Shirley and Michael - Have a great day.

Zona - That was really a cute joke. Thanks for sharing. It started my morning with a smile.

It's frosty and sunny this morning so it looks like it is going to be a lovely Fall day. A good day for a ride on the scooter. Have fun everyone.

*****GUSH ALERT*****

The girl was fantastic~ I helped with the concession stand during intermission, and didn't get back in to see the play until she was already onstage.....I heard her thru the doors...and then I heard a roar of laughter~

Afterward....more parents came to tell me how funny she was~ The part that REALLY got me tho...was when one of the parents told me during intermission, that Joaquin, A BOY IN MY OLDESTS' CLASS!!!, came wearing a suit and told her that he came to see MY GIRL!!!!! HE'S A SOPHOMORE IN COLLEGE!!!! I kept an eye on her afterward.....he brought her flowers....ugh!!!!!!~ Who cares if I like this boy.....HE'S A SOPHOMORE IN COLLEGE!!!!!!!!~

Hey Di~ it's snowing big ol' chucks~

Tina So how much older does that make him? 4 yrs? It is worrisome at that age. On the other hand, it sounds like he has class.
