(Sharing from Home With A
Heart)
I
heard a story about a mother who was sick in bed with the flu.
Her darling
daughter
wanted so much to be a good nurse. She fluffed the pillows
and
brought a
magazine for her mother to read. And then she even showed up
with
a surprise
cup of tea.
"Why, you're such a
sweetheart," the mother said as she drank the tea. "I
didn't
know you
even knew how to make tea."
"Oh, yes," the little
girl replied. "I learned by watching you. I put the
tea
leaves in
the pan and then I put in the water, and I boiled it, and then
I strained
it into a
cup. But I couldn't find a strainer, so I used the flyswatter
instead."
"You what?" the mother
screamed.
And the little girl
said, "Oh, don't worry, Mom, I didn't use the new
flyswatter.
I used the
old one."
