Listening Is Good
Sometimes you need to listen...
Little Johnny watched his daddy's car pass by the
school playground and go into the woods. Curious, he
followed the car and saw Daddy and Aunt Jane in a
passionate embrace.
Little Johnny found this so exciting that he could not
contain himself as he ran home and started to tell his
mother, "Mommy, I was at the playground and I saw
Daddy's car go into the woods with Aunt Jane. I went
back to look and he was giving Aunt Jane a big kiss,
then he helped her take off her shirt. Then Aunt Jane
helped Daddy take his pants off, then Aunt Jane........"
At this point Mommy cut him off and said, "Johnny,
this is such an interesting story, suppose you save
the rest of it for supper time. I want to see the look
on Daddy's face when you tell it tonight."
At the dinner table, Mommy asked little Johnny to tell
his story. Johnny started his story, ! "I was at the
playground and I saw Daddy's car go into the woods
with Aunt Jane. I went back to look and he was giving
Aunt Jane a big kiss, then he helped her take off her
shirt. Then Aunt Jane helped Daddy take his pants off,
then Aunt Jane and Daddy started doing the same thing
that Mommy and Uncle Bill used to do when Daddy was in
the Army."
Moral: Sometimes you need to listen to the whole story
before you interrupt.
