>little boy went into the old gentleman's yard, climbed onto his lap, and

> When his mother asked him what he had said to the neighbor, the

> 'What does it mean to be adopted?', asked another child.

> On the day the parts were awarded, I went with her to collect him

>and shivering with cold.
>
> A lady approached the young boy and said, 'My, but you're in such

> 'I was asking God to give me a pair of shoes,'was the boy's reply.

> She took the little fellow to the back part of the store and,

Great ones as always Dusty. Thanks for the laugh. I'm sure it would've knocked my socks off had I been wearing them.
