The first child says, “My dad scribbles a few words on a piece of paper and calls it a poem and theyGive him, “$50.”

The second child says, “That’s nothing, my dad scribblesa few words on a piece of paper and calls it a song and they give him, “100.”

The third child says, “I’ve got you both beat. My mom scribbles a few words on a piece of paper and calls it asermon. It takes eight people to collect all the money!”
