Out Of The Mouths Of Our Babes

Laughing is one of the best (and most natural!) stress relievers out there so I offer you this story...my niece comes home from day camp and announces to my sister and brother-in-law that she is so excited because she has been chosen for the summer production of The Wizard of Oz. My sister excitedly asked her what role she was given. My niece looked at her with a grinning wide-eyed enthusiasm and said, "Mommy, I'm going to be a donut!" My sister, confused at the idea that the drama department had added "food part extras" to fluff the cast list, asked again, "What part are you going to be?" Once again, my niece replied proudly, "A donut!" Suddenly it all made sense. My sister looked at her and said, "Emma, do you mean you are going to be a munchkin?" "OOH, yes," she said..."a munchkin!!!!!!!!!!"
