HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!

Just for Laughs

Here’s how several elementary school students answered the following questions about moms: 

Why did God make mother?

-She’s the only one who knows where the Scotch tape is.

-Mostly to clean the house.

-To help us out of there when we were getting born. 

How did God make mothers?

-He used dirt, just like for the rest of us.

-Magic plus superpowers and a lot of stirring. 

-God made my mom just the same like he made me.  He just used bigger parts.

Of what ingredients are mothers made?

-God makes mothers out of clouds and angel hair and everything nice in the world, and one dab of mean.

-They had to get their start from men’s bones. They can mostly use string, I think.

Why did God give you your mother and not some other mom? 

-We’re related.

-God knew she likes me a lot more than other people’s moms like me.
