Gifts For The Teacher
On a special teacher's day. a kindergarten teacher was receiving gifts from
her pupils. The florist's son handed her a gift. She shooked it, held it
over her head, and said, "I bet I know what it is...flowers. "That's right!"
said the boy. "But how did you know?" Just a wild guess, she said.
The next pupil was the candy store owner's daughter. The teacher held her
gift overhead, shooked it, and said, "I bet I can guess what it is... a box
of candy. "That's right!" But how did you know?" asked the girl. "Just a
lucky guess," said the teacher.
The next gift was from the liquor store owner's son. The teacher held it
over her head but it was leaking. She touched a drop of the leakage with her
finger and tasted it. "Is it wine?" she asked. "No, the boy replied. The
teacher repeated the process, touching another drop of the leakage to her
tongue. "Is it champagne?" she asked. "No," the boy replied. The teacher
then said, "I give up, what is it?"
The boy replied, "A puppy!"
