Dad Jokes

Every man has the right that when he becomes a dad, he joins a special group – men telling “dad” jokes.  Geoff has been telling this joke for years, and he still gets a laugh from any unsuspecting child.

Now to tell this joke properly, dad needs to put his fingers in his mouth and pull his lips very wide when our friend, the wide-mouth bull frog speaks.

It’s morning time and the wide-mouthed bull frog decides he wants to go exploring.  Hippity hop, hippity hop, and he meets a sheep.  ‘Hello, Mr Sheep’, says the wide-mouthed bull frog.  ‘What do you eat?’  ‘Well,’ says the sheep, ‘I eat grass’.

‘That’s great,’ says the wide-mouthed bull frog.  ‘Cheerio!’.

Hippity hop, hippity hop – off he goes, and he meets a horse.  ‘Hello, Mr Horse,’ says the wide-mouthed  bull frog.  ‘What do you eat?’  ‘Well,’ says the horse, ‘I eat hay’.  ‘That’s wonderful,’ says the wide-mouthed bull frog.  ‘Cheerio!’

Hippity hop, hippity hop – off goes the wide-mouthed bull frog.  He then comes across a snake.  ‘Hello, Mr Snake,’ says the wide-mouth bull frog.  ‘What do you eat?’.  The snake looks him up and down and then hisses ‘I eat wide-mouth bull frogs.’

‘Oh,’ says the wide-mouthed bull frog, desperately pushing the sides of his mouth together with his little fingers, ‘You don’t see many of those around these days, do you?’

Have a Happy Easter.  We’re off to church to celebrate!!

Rainy Days

Just speaking to my dearest friend Jen Tooley and she tells me she is cleaning out her pantry. I said I was thinking of posting things to do on rainy days and that was the first thing that popped into my head. So it’s meant to be – clearly by the photo attached mine definitely needs a clean out.

A tip from Shannon Lush (Spotless, Shannon Lush & Jennifer Fleming) – wipe the shelves with lavender oil and place a bay leaf every 60 centimetres along the shelves to discourage moths and silverfish.

Bring out the best in your marriage

Be the encourager in your relationship:

I am more myself with you than with anyone else.

You challenge me to be a better person, you make me feel safe.

Thank you for being the best you can be and for making our life work.

And:   Don’t keep bringing up his/her past wrongs ( things they have done that don’t please you).
