Glasses

Little Norman’s neighbour had a baby. Unfortunately, the baby was born without ears. When mother and new baby came home from the hospital, Norman’s family was invited over to see the baby. Before they left their house, Little Norman’s dad had a talk with him and explained that the baby had no ears. His dad also told him that if he so much mentioned anything about the baby’s missing ears or even said the word ears, he would get the smacking of his life when they came back home. Little Norman told his dad he understood completely. When Norman looked in the crib he said, “What a beautiful baby.”

The mother said, “Why, thank you, Little Norman.”

Norman said, “He has beautiful little feet and beautiful little hands, a cute little nose and really beautiful eyes. Can he see?”

“Yes”, the mother replied, “we are so thankful; the doctor said he will have 20/20 vision.”

“That’s great”, said Little Norman, “cuz he’d be screwed if he needed glasses”!
