   Not to offend anyone, but thought all might enjoy.


GOD CREATED CHILDREN (AND IN THE PROCESS  GRANDCHILDREN) 

To those of us who have children in our lives, whether  they are our own, 
grandchildren, nieces, nephews, or students...here is  something to make you 
chuckle.  Whenever your children are out of control,  you can take comfort from 
the thought that even God's omnipotence did not extend  to His own children 
After creating heaven and earth, God created Adam and Eve.  And the first thing he
 said was "DON'T!" 





Keep  Scrolling 

"Don't what?" Adam replied. 





"Don't eat the forbidden fruit." God said. 

Keep Scrolling 





"Forbidden fruit? We have forbidden fruit? Hey  Eve..we have forbidden 
fruit!!!!!" 





"No Way!" 





Keep scrolling 





"Yes way!" 





"Do NOT eat the fruit!" said God. 





"Why" 





"Because I am your Father and I said so!" God  replied, wondering why He 
hadn't stopped creation after making the elephants. A  few minutes later, God saw 
His children having an apple break and He was angry!  "Didn't I tell you not 
to eat the fruit?" God asked. 





"Uh huh," Adam replied. 





"Then why did you?" said the Father. 





"I don't know," said Eve. 





"She started it!" Adam said 





"Did not!" 





"Did too!" 





"DID NOT!" 





Having had it with the two of them, God's punishment was that Adam  and Eve 
should have children of their own. Thus the pattern was set and it has  never 
changed. 

BUT THERE IS REASSURANCE IN THE STORY!  If you have persistently and lovingly 
tried to give children wisdom and  they haven't taken it, don't be hard on 
yourself. If God had trouble raising  children, what makes you think it would be 
a piece of cake for you?  
 
THINGS TO THINK ABOUT! 
1. You spend the first two years of their  life teaching them to walk and 
talk. Then you spend the next sixteen telling  them to sit down and shut up. 





2. Grandchildren are God's reward for not killing your own children. 





3. Mothers of teens now know why some animals  eat their young. 





4. Children seldom  misquote you. In fact, they usually repeat word for word 
what you shouldn't have  said. 





5. The main purpose of holding children's  parties is to remind yourself that 
there are children more awful than your own. 





6. We childproofed our homes, but they are  still getting in. 









ADVICE FOR THE DAY: Be nice to your kids. They will choose your  nursing home 
one day. 





AND FINALLY: 





IF YOU HAVE A LOT OF TENSION AND YOU GET A HEADACHE, DO WHAT IT SAYS  ON THE 
ASPIRIN BOTTLE: 





"TAKE TWO ASPIRIN" AND "KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN"!!!!! 

Quick, send this on to ten people within the next five minutes.  Nothing will 
happen if you don't, but if you do, ten people will be  laughing.
