Okay... Shew. *wipes brow* This one brings back a memory or two. Although it's not exactly the same one. LOL Here's the memory it brought back for me and you'll get to laugh too.
I was sitting in church one day when I was about 16 or so. We always sat up front (congregation of about 400 people or so) because my grandfather was a deacon there for over 40 years and it was just one of those things that my family always did as a sign of respect to him and his position inside the church to sit up front. Anyway, one of the first things during each Sunday's service was for all the kids (4 and 5 year olds) to run down front for "Children's Church" which was a "mini-sermon" before they ran off to day care where they stayed until "big church" was over. Well this particular Sunday was Mother's Day. The Children's Church Sermon was taking the letters that make up the word mother (M - O - T - H - E - R) and make them mean something meaningful in the children's lives. At this point, I don't remember what any of the letters stand for EXCEPT that I remember VERY well what the T stands for. As the preacher spoke, he said that the "letter T stood for thermometer because..." and at that moment, little Johnny stood up and darn near screamed it out, "that's the thing my mommy sticks up my butt when I'm sick!" Well that was it! It was all over for the M-O-T-H-E-R thing. The whole congregation burst into laughter and I think we laughed for nearly 15 minutes! It was the VERY first thing I thought of when I read this thread. I have no idea why...but I had to share.
