OT cute stuff and glass slippers

[Guest guest]

Some cute stuff that kids say.

This illustrates nicely how people will substitute

a word they do know for a word that no

longer has meaning.

This is how Cinderella ended up with glass slippers.

(vair=some kind of fur, became verre=glass)

 

A Sunday school class was studying the Ten Commandments. They were ready to

discuss the last one. The teacher asked if anyone could tell her what it was.

Susie raised her hand, stood tall, and quoted, " Thou shall not take the

covers off thy neighbor's wife. "

 

Our five-year-old son Mark couldn't wait to tell his friend about the movie we

had watched on television, " 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. "

The scenes with the submarine and the giant octopus had kept him wide-eyed.

 

In the middle of the telling, my husband interrupted Mark, " What caused the

submarine to sink? "

 

With a look of incredulity Mark replied, " Dad, it was the 20,000 leaks!! "
