Why God Created Children (and in the process grandchildren)

>>
>> WHY GOD CREATED CHILDREN (AND IN THE PROCESS GRANDCHILDREN)
>>
>>
>> To those of us who have children in our lives,
>> whether they are our own,
>> grandchildren,
>> nieces,
>> nephews,
>> or students...
>> here is something to make you chuckle.
>>
>> Whenever your children are out of control,
>> you can take comfort from the thought that
>> even God's omnipotence did not extend
>> to His own children.
>>
>> After creating heaven and earth,
>> God created Adam and Eve.
>>
>> And the first thing he said was
>> "DON'T!"
>>
>>
>> "Don't what?"
>> Adam replied.
>>
>>
>> "Don't eat the forbidden fruit."
>> God said.
>> "Forbidden fruit?
>> We have forbidden fruit?
>> Hey Eve..we have forbidden fruit!"
>>
>>
>> "No Way!"
>>
>>
>> "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 ticked!
>>
>> "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"!!!!!
