THIS LITTLE PIGGY SAID..........

This  is a true story, proving how fascinating the mind of a six year old  is. They  think so logically.

A teacher was reading the story of the Three Little Pigs  to her class.

She  came to the part of the story where first pig was trying to gather the  building materials for his home.

She  read “And so the pig went up to the man with the wheelbarrow full of straw  and said: ‘Pardon me sir, but may I have some of that straw to build my  house?’”

The  teacher paused then asked the class: “And what do you think the man said?”

One  little boy raised his hand and said very matter-of-factually... “I think the  man would have said – I'll be damned!!  A  talking pig!”

KIDS KNOW MORE THAN WE THINK

Being a veterinarian, I had been called to examine a ten-year-old Irish Wolfhound named Belker. The dog's owners, Ron, his wife Lisa, and their little boy Shane, were all very attached to Belker, and they were hoping for a miracle.

I examined Belker and found he was dying of cancer. I told the family we couldn't do anything for Belker, and offered to perform the euthanasia procedure for the old dog in their home.

As we made arrangements, Ron and Lisa told me they thought it would be good for six-year-old Shane toMobserve the procedure.

They felt as though Shane might learn something from the experience.
The next day, I felt the familiar catch in my throat as Belker 's family surrounded him. Shane seemed so calm, petting the old dog for the last time, that I wondered if he understood what was going on. Within a few minutes, Belker slipped peacefully away.

The little boy seemed to accept Belker's transition without any difficulty or confusion. We sat together for a while after Belker's Death, wondering aloud about the sad fact that animal lives are shorter than human lives.

Shane, who had been listening quietly, piped up, ''I know why.''
Startled, we all turned to him. What came out of his mouth next stunned me. I'd never heard a more comforting explanation. It has changed the way I try and live.

He said,''People are born so that they can learn how to live a good life -- like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right?'' The Six-year-old continued, ''Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don't have to stay as long.'
