Johnny had been misbehaving and was sent to his room.
After a while he emerged and informed his mother that he had thought it over
and then said a prayer.
"Fine," said the pleased mother. "If you
ask God to help you not misbehave, He will help you."
"Oh, I didn't ask Him to help me not
misbehave," said Johnny. "I asked Him to help you put up with
me."

Snow
White received a camera as a gift.
She joyfully took many pictures of the Dwarves, the forest, the animals, etc.
She quickly finished her first roll, and immediately took the film into town to be developed.
"How long before they're ready?" Snow asked the clerk.
He informed her it would be at least 6 days, as they had to send it to the Big City to be processed (remember, they didn't have 1-hour processing OR FedEx back then!)
After a week, she went to get the finished photos. The clerk told her they were not yet back from the processor.
"Come back next week", he said to her. Of course, as the story goes, she returned the following week for her 4x6 glossies, but they still had not returned!
Snow White was so distraught that she started to sob right there at thecounter.
The clerk, trying to console her, said kindly, "Don't worry, Dear...
Someday your prints will come."
