The Sunday Funny

Dorothy, reading:  "Mom, this book says that consequences can be good or bad.  It just means that something is a result of an action.  You always say consequence like it's a bad thing.  And did you know that suffrage means the right to vote?"

The Sunday Funnies

Dorothy was reading Anne of Green Gables.  "Anne has to go to Sunday School every week," she said.  "Finally!  A character who has my same problem!"

Dorothy told me:  "I started a Maoist Revolution at school."
Me: ????
She continued:  "I was the first person to bring a mouse for my computer, and now three other kids have brought them, too."

At Dorothy's request I piled about 15 of her stuffed animals on her bed.  She wanted the final two stuffies, and I said that I had left them out because they are electronic and they talk.  "They all talk to me," she countered.
