It's OK Jane
A man observed a woman in the grocery store with a three-year-old girl in
her basket. As they passed the cookie section, the little girl
asked for cookies and her mother told her, "No." The little girl
immediately began to whine and fuss, and the mother said quietly, "Now
Jane, we just have half of the aisles left to go through - don't be upset.
It won't be long now."
Soon, they came to the candy aisle and the little girl began to shout for
candy. When told she couldn't have any, she began to cry. The
mother said, "There, there, Jane, don't cry - only two more aisles to go
and then we'll be checking out."
When they got to the checkout stand, the little girl immediately began to
clamor for gum and burst into a terrible tantrum upon discovering there'd
be no gum purchased. The mother said serenely, "Jane, we'll be through this
check out stand in 5 minutes and then you can go home and have a nice nap."
The man followed them out to the parking lot and stopped the woman to
compliment her. "I couldn't help noticing how patient you were with little
Jane. It's quite commendable," he remarked.
The mother replied, "I'm Jane. My little girl's name is Tammy."
