A mother wanted to teach her daughter a moral lesson.
She gave the little girl a quarter and a dollar for
church.
"Put whichever one you want in the collection plate
and keep the other for yourself," she told the girl.
When they were coming out of the church, the mother
asked her daughter which amount she had given.
"Well," said the little girl, "I was going to give
the dollar, but just before the collection the man
in the pulpit said that we should all be cheerful
givers. I knew I'd be a lot more cheerful if I gave
the quarter, so I did."

A man and his wife were arguing about family members.
"It's just not right", the wife said. "You don't like
anybody in my family!"
"That's not true," replied the husband. "I like your mother-in-law
much
better than my mother-in-law. "

A teenage girl had been talking on the phone for
about half an hour, and then she hung up.
"Wow!," said her father, "That was short. You
usually talk for two hours. What happened?"
"Wrong number," replied the girl.
