He Went Crazy When His Daughter Said Goodbye
A father tucked his 3-year-old daughter into bed, told her a story, and listened to her prayers
“God bless Mommy, God bless Daddy, God bless Grandma, and goodbye Grandpa.”
“Why did you say goodbye, Grandpa?” her father asked.
The little girl said, “I don’t know, Daddy, it just seemed like something I had to do.
The next day, Grandpa died.
Her father thought it was a strange coincidence.
A few months later, the father put the little girl to bed and listened to her prayers, which went like this
“God bless Mommy, God bless Daddy, and goodbye, Grandma.”
The next day, the grandmother died.
“Wow,” the father thought, “this child is in touch with the other side.
A few weeks later, as the girl was going to bed, her father heard her say
“God bless Mommy and goodbye, Daddy.”
He was almost in shock.
She couldn’t sleep all night and got up at the crack of dawn to go to her office.
Nervous as a cat all day, he ate lunch and looked at the clock.
He thought if he could make it to midnight, he would be okay.
He felt safe in the office, so instead of going home at the end of the day, he stayed there, drinking coffee, looking at his watch, and jumping at every sound.
Finally, it was midnight; he breathed a sigh of relief and went home.
When he got home, his wife said, “I’ve never seen you work this late, what’s the matter?”
He said, “I don’t want to talk about it, I had the worst day of my life.
She said, “If you think you’ve had a bad day, you’ll never believe what happened to me.”
“This morning my boss died in the middle of a meeting!”
They Say Men Don’t Listen To Women
A man asked his wife what she wanted for her 40th birthday.
“I’d like to be six again,” she replied.
On the morning of her birthday, he woke her up early and they went to a local amusement park.
What a day! He took her on every ride in the park: Death Slide, Scream Loop, Wall of Horror, everything! Wow!
Five hours later, dizzy and sick to his stomach, he staggered out of the amusement park.
They went straight to McDonald’s and her husband ordered her a Happy Meal with extra fries and a refreshing chocolate shake.
Then they went to the movies – it was the latest Disney movie and what an amazing adventure!
Finally, she returned home with her husband and collapsed on the bed.
Her husband leaned over and asked her affectionately: “So, honey, what was it like to be six years old again?”
The woman looked up wearily and said;
“You fool, I meant my dress size.”
The moral of the story is this:
If a woman speaks and a man is really listening, he will still misunderstand.
