A little boy who prayed for a bicycle had an even more startling
surprise instead -- a baby sister. That night he had a talk with God
about His delivery service. "I got a sister instead of a bike," he
explained to God. "Maybe some other kid wanted a sister and got my
bike. Is there any chance we can keep the girl and get me a bike, too?"
from "Faith, Hope and Hilarity: The Child's Eye View
of Religion" by Dick Van Dyke

I had gathered my first-grade class around me to teach them to tell time
using a conventional-style analog clock. We'll be learning about the
hour hand and the minute hand, I explained. One of my students
interrupted and said, "I don't need to learn on that kind of clock. My
dad bought me this digital watch, and right now it's 10 minutes to 38."

Driving along, with my 7-year-old daughter in the front seat. She says,
"Daddy, when I grow up I want to be a vegetarian."
I reply, "A what?"
"You know, the doctor that takes care of animals."
