When my daughter, Brittany, was 4 or 5, she was having some "growing pains" in her legs and needed to take

some aspirin. She had the bottle and was trying in vain to get it open while I changed her baby sister's diaper. I saw her frustration and explained that it was a childproof cap and I would have to open it when I finished. Eyes wide with wonder, Brittany asked, "How does it know it's me?" ------It was a somber moment at prayer meeting. A woman had just requested prayer for a member recently diagnosed with a serious disease. "Oh oh!" someone nearby said, aloud. "Spaghettios!" my son sang out in a shrill voice. "O, O, Spaghettios!" Still a babe, he obviously already had observed too many commercials. -----When I serve ice cream, I like to put it in the microwave for about 20 seconds to soften before scooping it out. One summer my grandson, Alex, was visiting from Michigan. When I went to get him some ice cream, he observed me placing the carton in the microwave. He said, "Wait, Grandma, Wait!! In Michigan we eat our ice cream frozen!!"

Even if the voices aren't real,they have some pretty good ideas.

I walked with Spring along a path Where roses took a dew-dropped bath, Where flowers with many colorful hues-Saluted the day with raving reviews. I danced with Spring along a creek, Where frisky frogs played hide-and-seek, Where Dogwood trees wore lacy gowns, Neath canopies of cotton crowns. The Earth stood still, While my cares took flight; My Soul was filled with "Pure Delight," I walked with Spring where Nature trod, And gazed upon the face of God
