> of my cup?"

>

> Her grandson replied, "You know grandma, it’s like on TV... ‘The best part

> of waking up is soldiers in your cup.’"

> The mother smiled and gave him a reassuring hug. "I can’t dear, I have to

> sleep in daddy’s room."

> Memorial

> One Sunday morning, the pastor noticed little Alex was staring up at the

> large plaque that hung in the foyer of the church. It was covered with

> names, and small American flags were mounted on either side of it.

>

> The seven-year-old had been staring at the plaque for some time, so the

> pastor walked up, stood beside the boy and said quietly, "Good morning

> Alex."

>

> "Good morning Pastor," replied the young man, still focused on the plaque.

> "Pastor McGhee, what is this?" Alex asked.

>

> "Well, son, it’s a memorial to all the men and women who have died in the

> service."

>

> Soberly, they stood together, staring at the large plaque. Little Alex’s

> voice was barely audible when he asked, "Which one, the 9:00 or the 10:30

> service?"

>

> =======================

> A Sunday school teacher asked her little children, as they were on the way

> to church service, "And why is it necessary to be quiet in church?"

>

> One bright little girl replied, "Because people are sleeping."
