"Do it again, Dad!"

My husband and I had just finished
tucking our four young ones into bed one evening when we heard sobbing
coming from three-year-old Raju's room.
Rushing to his side, we found him
crying hysterically. He had accidentally swallowed a 25 paise coin and
was sure he was going to die. No amount of talking could change his
mind.
Desperate to calm him, my husband
palmed a 25 paise coin that he happened to have in his pocket and
pretended to pull it from Raju's ear. Raju was delighted.
In a flash, he snatched it from my
husband's hand, swallowed it and demanded cheerfully, "Do it again,
Dad!"

The new member in
the family.. |

For weeks a five-year-old child kept
telling his kindergarten teacher about the baby sister or brother that
was expected at his house.
One day the mother allowed the child
to feel the movements of the unborn baby. The five-year-old was
obviously impressed, but made no comment. Moreover, he stopped telling
the teacher about the awaiting event.
Finally the teacher sat the child on
her lap and said, "Ramesh, whatever has become of that baby brother or
sister you were expecting at home?
Ramesh burst into tears and
confessed, "I think Mommy ate it!"
