A six-year-old boy told his father he wanted to marry the little girl across the street.
The father, being modern and well-schooled in handling children, hid his smile behind his hand.
“That’s a serious step,” he said, “Have you thought it out completely?”
“Sure,” his young son answered. “We can spend one week in my room and the next in hers. It’s right across the street, so I can run home if I get lonely in the night.”
“How about transportation?” the father asked.
“I have my wagon, and we both have our tricycles,” the little boy answered.
The boy had an answer to every question the father raised.
Finally, in exasperation, the father asked, “What about babies? When you’re married, you’re liable to have babies, you know.”
“We’ve thought about that too”, the little boy replied. “We’re not going to have any babies. Every time she lays an egg, I’m going to step on it.”
==============================================
There was an expectant father who had spent quite some time waiting for the offspring to arrive – at his in-laws place.
He was absolutely positive that his wife was going to present him with a boy and wouldn`t hear of anything else.
As his leave balance had gone into the red, he told his father-in-law, “When my son comes, do not call up office and say that I have become a father of a boy. Then I`ll have to shell out a lot for parties, etc. Just tell me that the clock has arrived. This will be our code for the arrival of my son.”
The offspring does arrive one day, but it`s a daughter. The father-in-law now thinks, “If I tell him that the clock has not arrived, he`ll misunderstand that some thing has happened to the baby and come rushing over.”
So he sends the message, “The clock has arrived, ! but the pendulum is missing.”
==============================================
A woman goes to Italy to attend a 2-week, company training session.
Her husband drives her to the airport and wishes her to have a good trip.
The wife answers: “Thank you honey, what would you like me to bring for you?”
The husband laughs and says: “An Italian girl,…!!!”
The woman kept quiet and left.
Two weeks later he picks her up in the airport and asks: “So, honey, how was the trip?”
“Very good, thank you.”
“And, what happened to my present?”
“Which present?” She asked.
“The one I asked for – an Italian girl,..!!”
“Oh, that” she said,
“Well, I did what I could, now we have to wait for nine months to see if it is a girl,… !!!”
