This Little Girl Just Shocked Everyone With Her Assignment, Including Her Teacher. The teacher gave her fifth grade class an assignment: Get their parents to tell them a story with a moral at the end of it. The next day, the kids came back and, one by one, began to tell their stories. Susie said โWe live on a farm and I was collecting eggs from the hen house one day. I gathered the eggs and put them in my basket and set off running toward the house. While running I tripped over a rock and smashed all of the eggs.
โSo whatโs the moral of the story Susie?โ Asked the teacher. โDonโt put all of your eggs in one basket,โ said Susie. Next it was Billyโs turn to go. โWe also live on a farm,โ said Billy. โWe have incubators to help our eggs hatch. One night there was a thunderstorm and lightning knocked out the power to the incubators. โSo whatโs the moral of that story Billy?โ Asked the teacher. โDonโt count your chickens before they hatch,โ said Billy. The teacher turned to Janie. โJanie, do you have a story to share? โYes maโam. My daddy told me a story about my Mommy. She was a Marine pilot in Desert Storm, and her plane got hit. She had to bail out over enemy territory, and all she had was a flask of whiskey, a pistol, and a survival knife. She drank the whiskey on the way down so the bottle wouldnโt break, and then her parachute landed her right in the middle of 20 Iraqi troops. She shot 15 of them with the pistol, until she ran out of bullets, killed four more with the knife, till the blade broke, and then she killed the last Iraqi with her bare hands. โGood Heavens,โ said the horrified teacher. โWhat did your Daddy tell you was the moral to this horrible story? โHe said donโt mess with Mommy when sheโs been drinking.โ
