Children lightening life

1) Note I found scribbled to God by a Mexican migrant boy in my summer program a few years ago: “Sorry Good for This obay (disobey) the leader and Yuo. I likce Yuor songs. I need Yuor help so I can get noo more time out.”

Poor Ricky, always licking the others and cutting the limbs off stuffed animals. Nonetheless, he continued grooving to God’s songs.

2) Small boy at the Mennonite Relief Sale plopping down to rest, then bemoaning, ”Just. My. Luck. I sat on a fried pie.” (Baked goods in the back pocket. Whoops.)

3) Noteback paper from my middle school days entitled “Mack or Whack”  filled with pick-up lines for all types. History buffs: ”If you were president, you’d be Babe-braham Lincoln.” Guidos: “I see something sexy and it’s not me this time.” Realists: “Hey I’m not picky, why are you?” Champions of truth: “Hi my name is Joe and I want you to be my baby’s daddy.” Good thing I recorded those. If anyone reads this link on my facebook and needs help snagging your sweetie, I have 21 more of all varieties.
