Children's stories

I came across these two stories recently, and thought all of you would enjoy them:

1) Sunday School teacher (looking with some confusion of a pictures of stick figures in a modern airplane): Billy, can you explain your drawing to me?
Billy: Oh, this is Joseph and Mary and the baby Jesus on their flight to Egypt.
Teacher: But who is the fourth person on the plane?
Billy: That's Pontius the Pilate!

2) A six-year-old girl has recently given her younger sister a terrible haircut with scissors, and is not allowed to play with scissors. Being creative, she comes up with a plan to win her privileges back. She dresses up in a long 'dress-up' dress, puts on high heels, and walks downstairs to her mother's study. Leaning over the desk in a coquettish manner, she announces: 'I'm sure you don't know me, but I'm sixteen, and my mother lets me play with scissors.' The mom, I'm sure had a hard time keeping a straight face, but the rule remained.
