Nothing wrong with third place in a competition,
Douglas. Your entry was fun to read. Of course,
young kids say those kinds of things, and adults
can't help but laugh. This was one of those times.
Thanks for sharing, Jan

Comment from Gypsy Blue Rose
LoL from the mouths of babes .... your daughter is adorable.
your entry for the Humorous 50 Word Story writing prompt contest is very funny, thank you for that. Children see the world with a new vision of old things, like the Bible. I like how you said "no" "he didn't " so patient ... non-judgmental. Well done. Good luck in the contest!

This was a very humorous story indeed! I've heard of some vocabulary mix-ups before, but this one takes the cake. Thank you so much for sharing, and best wishes to you.

It really was a funny moment in life.
Comment from Rosemary Everson1
What a surprising ending. I bet your granddaughter had you going with that Biblical story. Neither word is close to the same sound; we live and learn when it comes to a word pronunciation.

Yes, too funny!

Ah... either she misspoke or the child misunderstood. Either way, it made for a tenuous time for dad in this instance.
A good contest entry. Best of luck.

Comment from PoemsOfDD
Yes, this would have been really funny - especially if the young girl had asked the question loud and clear in church... lol. I like that this is a true story said out of innocence from a wee children learning about God. Well done and best of luck in the competition.

Comment from Bill Schott
This humorous fifty-word story, The Mouth of Babes, has the proper word count and finds a teaching moment that may have come around just in time. Cute.

Comment from JT traveller
Out of the mouths of babes indeed! That is quite funny. I hope the father could hold back his mirth. I particularly enjoyed the use of dialogue. It made for a very interesting read. Best of luck.
