bright young boy asking serious questions!


All That Matters

Joey was a very bright young boy
and he wanted the answer to so many
questions!
Answers to the mystery of life and death.
Answers to why there is a sun and a moon
andv why there are stars in the dark night sky!
Answers to where babies come from and so forth.
And also Joey
wanted to know how he and his brothers and sisters
all have different last names!
He knew that there must be a reason for this and
there was no one better to answer this question
than his own sweet mother!
He went to his mother and put the question to her.
She looked at him strangely
and smiled.
then in a very emotional tone of voice, she said,
"Yes, son, you may all have different last names
but you are still all brothers and sisters by blood!
Its because I'm your mother and that is
all that matters!
