After a heavy rainstorm filled all the potholes in the streets & alleys, a young mother watched her 2 little boys playing in the puddles through her kitchen window. The older of the 2, a five year old lad, grabbed his sibling by the back of his head and shoved his face into one of the waterholes. As the boy recovered & stood laughing & dripping, the mother ran towards them in a panic. Why on earth did you do that to ur little brother? she said, as she took the older boy's shoulder in anger, combined with relief. We were just playing church mommy, he said. And I was just baptising him you know, "In the name of the father, the son, and in the hole he goes"
