One evening while play-

ing cards with my nine-

year-old nephew, he

started acting up. His

father said, “If you want

to play cards with the

adults, you have to

act like one.” Without

missing a beat, he

replied “Well, pass

the whisky, then.”

My daughter is in her

first year of middle

school and I asked if

she’s planning to go to

any of the dances. She

said, “Only if there’s

going to be food.”

As my sister removed

her glasses at bedtime,

my eight-year-old niece

looked at her, puzzled.

Finally, she asked, “Aun-

tie, if you remove your

glasses, how will you

see when you dream?”

My neighbour walked

by with his grandson

Rodney in tow. I asked

Rodney how old he

was. He answered,

“I’m four.”

I said, “You look pretty

big for four. When are

you going to be five?”

Rodney said, “When

I’m finished being four!”
