> Author and lecturer Leo Buscaglia once talked about a contest he was
>asked to judge. The purpose of the contest was to find the most caring
>child.
>
> The winner was:
>
> A four-year-old child, whose next door neighbor was an elderly
>gentleman, who had recently lost his wife. Upon seeing the man cry, the
>little boy went into the old gentleman's yard, climbed onto his lap, and
>just sat there.
>
> When his mother asked him what he had said to the neighbor, the
>little boy just said, 'Nothing, I just helped him cry.'
>

>
> Teacher Debbie Moon's first graders were discussing a picture of a
>family One little boy in the picture had a different hair color than the
>other members. One of her students suggested that he was adopted.
>
> A little girl said, 'I know all about adoption, I was adopted..'
>
> 'What does it mean to be adopted?', asked another child.
>
> 'It means', said the girl, 'that you grew in your mommy's heart
>instead of her tummy!'
>

>
> On my way home one day, I stopped to watch a Little League base ball
>game that was being played in a park near my home. As I sat down behind the
>bench on the first-base line, I asked one of the boys what the score was
>
> 'We're behind 14 to nothing,' he answered with a smile.
>
> 'Really,' I said. 'I have to say you don't look very discouraged.'
>
> 'Discouraged?', the boy asked with a puzzled look on his face...
>
> 'Why should we be discouraged? We haven't been up to bat yet.'
>

>
> Whenever I'm disappointed with my spot in life, I stop and think
>about little Jamie Scott.
>
> Jamie was trying out for a part in the school play. His mother told
>me that he'd set his heart on being in it, though she feared he would not
>be chosen.
>
> On the day the parts were awarded, I went with her to collect him
>after school. Jamie rushed up to her, eyes shining with pride and
>excitement. 'Guess what, Mom,' he shouted, and then said those words that
>will remain a lesson to me.....'I've been chosen to clap and cheer.'
>
> *********************************************
>
> An eye witness account from New York City , on a cold day in
>December, some years ago: A little boy, about 10-years-old, was standing
>before a shoe store on the roadway, barefooted, peering through the window,
>and shivering with cold.
>
> A lady approached the young boy and said, 'My, but you're in such
>deep thought staring in that window!'
>
> 'I was asking God to give me a pair of shoes,'was the boy's reply.
>
> The lady took him by the hand, went into the store, and asked the
>clerk to get half a dozen pairs of socks for the boy. She then asked if he
>could give her a basin of water and a towel. He quickly brought them to
>her.
>
> She took the little fellow to the back part of the store and,
>removing her gloves, knelt down, washed his little feet, and dried them
>with the towel.
>
> By this time, the clerk had returned with the socks. Placing a pair
>upon the boy's feet, she purchased him a pair of shoes.
>
> She tied up the remaining pairs of socks and gave them to him.. She
>patted him on the head and said, 'No doubt, you will be more comfortable
>now.'
>
> As she turned to go, the astonished kid caught her by the hand, and
>looking up into her face, with tears in his eyes, asked her.
>
> 'Are you God's wife?'

Great ones as always Dusty. Thanks for the laugh. I'm sure it would've knocked my socks off had I been wearing them.
