Looking up and down at my uniform she asked, \u201cAre you a cop?\u201d \u201cYes,\u201d I answered and continued writing the report. \u201cMy mother said if I ever needed help, I should ask the police. is that right?\u201d \u201cYes, that&#8217;s right,\u201d I told her. \u201cWell, then,\u201d she said as she extended her foot toward me, \u201cWould you please tie my shoe?\u201d<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">It was the end of the day when I parked my police van in front of the station. As I gathered my equipment, my K-9 partner, Jake, was barking, and I saw a little boy staring in at me. \u201cIs that a dog you got back there?\u201d he asked. \u201cIt sure is,\u201d I replied. Puzzled, the boy looked at me and then towards the back of the van. Finally, he said, \u201cWhat&#8217;d he do?\u201d<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">ELDERLY<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">While working for an organization that delivers lunches to elderly shut-ins, I used to take my four-year-old daughter on my afternoon rounds. She was unfailingly intrigued by the various appliances of old age, particularly the canes, walkers and wheelchairs. One day I found her staring at a pair of false teeth soaking in a glass. As I braced myself for the inevitable barrage of questions, she merely turned and whispered, \u201cThe tooth fairy will never believe this!\u201d<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">DRESS-UP<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">A little girl was watching her parents dress for a party. When she saw her dad putting on his tuxedo, she warned, \u201cDaddy, you shouldn&#8217;t wear that suit.\u201d \u201cAnd why not, darling?\u201d \u201cYou know that it always gives you a headache the next morning\u201d.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">DEATH<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">While walking along the sidewalk in front of his church, our minister heard in a prayer that nearly made his collar wilt. Apparently, his five- year- old son and his playmates had found a dead robin. Feeling that proper burial should be performed, they had secured a small box and cotton, then dug a hole and made ready for the disposal of the deceased. The minister&#8217;s son was chosen to say the appropriate prayer and with great dignity he gave his version of what he thought his father always said: \u201cGlory be into Father, and unto the Son, and into the hole he goes.\u201d<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">SCHOOL<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">And little girl finished her first week of school. \u201cI&#8217;m just wasting my time,\u201d she said to her mother. \u201cI can&#8217;t read, I can&#8217;t write, and they won&#8217;t let me talk!\u201d<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">BIBLE<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">A little boy opened the big family Bible. He was fascinated as he fingered through the old pages. Suddenly, something fell out of the Bible. He picked up the object and looked at it. What he saw was an old leaf that had been pressed between the pages. \u201cMama, look what I found,\u201d the boy called out. \u201cWhat have you got there, dear? &#8220;With astonishment in the young boy&#8217;s voice, he answered, \u201cI think it&#8217;s Adam&#8217;s underwear!\u201d<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>POLICE\u00a0 \u00a0While taking a routine vandalism report at an elementary school, I was interrupted by a little girl about six years old.
