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"!!!!!
