Napping at Grandma's

little poke'mon has been feeling under the weather all week. he came down with a cold and passed it on to Grandpa and Grandma last week, Daddy and Momma this week, and it has just made him one whiney little man. He is not wanting to eat, he is not wanting to drink, he just wants to be held. poor little man.

A little boy wanted $100.00 very badly and prayed for weeks, but nothing happened. Then he decided to write God a letter requesting the $100.00.

When the postal authorities received the letter to God, USA, they decided to send it to the President. The president was so amused that he instructed his secretary to send the little boy a $5.00 bill.

The president thought this would appear to be a lot of money to a little boy. The little boy was delighted with the $5.00 bill and sat down to write a thank-you note to God, which read:

Dear God: Thank you very much for sending the money. However, I noticed that for some reason you sent it through Washington, DC., and those stinkers deducted $95.00 in taxes.

My Daddy is a Marine

My Daddy is a Marine

He’s often gone away
To some far off country
Where he has to stay
I really miss my Daddy
And I’m not sure what he does
Except he helps other people
Who need him very much
At night when I say my prayers
I ask to keep Daddy safe
So that he can come home to us
And sit in his favorite place.
Sometimes I can hear Mommy cry
When she thinks I’m asleep
I know she misses Daddy
and her sadness hurts real deep
I know that a day may come
When Daddy won’t come home
and it scares me even thinking
that we will be alone.
My Daddy is a Marine
He’s often gone away
And I am so very proud of him
each and everyday.
Come home to us Daddy
When your job is done
I know that those people need you
But they aren’t the only ones!
