Little Old Lady
There was this little old lady who was nearly blind and
she had three sons who wanted to prove which one was
the best son to her.
So son #1 bought her a 15 room mansion thinking this
would surely be the best any of them could offer her.
Son #2 bought her a beautiful Mercedes with a chauffeur
included thinking her would surely win her approval.
Son #3 had to do something even better than these so he
bought her a trained parrot that had been training for
15 years to memorize the entire Bible. You could ask
of him any verse in the Bible and the parrot could
quote it word for word. What a gift that would be.
Well, the old lady went to the first son and said,
"Son, the house is just gorgeous but it's really much
too big for me. I only live in one room, and it's much
too large for me to clean and take care of. I really
don't need the house, but thank you anyway."
Then she confronted her second son with "Son, the car
is beautiful, it has everything you could ever want on
it, but I don't drive and I really don't like that
driver, so please return the car."
Next, she went to son number three and said, "Son I
just want to thank you for that most thoughtful gift.
That chicken was delicious." |
