Little Leroy

Little Leroy came into the kitchen where his mother
was making dinner. His birthday was coming up, and he
thought this was a good time to tell his mother what
he wanted. "Mom, I want a bike for my birthday."

Now Little Leroy was a bit of a troublemaker. He had
gotten into trouble at school & at home. Leroy's
mother asked him if he thought he deserved to get a
bike for his birthday. Little Leroy, of course,
thought he did. Leroy's mother, being a Christian
woman, wanted him to reflect on his behavior over the
last year & write a letter to God to tell him why he
deserved a bike for his birthday. Little Leroy stomped
up the steps to his room & sat down to write God a
letter.

LETTER 1:

Dear God:
I have been a very good boy this year, and I would
like a bike for my birthday. I want a red one.
Your friend, Leroy

Leroy knew this wasn't true. He had not been a very
good boy this year, so he tore up the letter & started
over.

LETTER 2:

Dear God:
This is your friend Leroy. I have been a pretty good
boy this year, and I would like a red bike for my
birthday. Thank you, Leroy.

Leroy knew this wasn't true either. He tore up the
letter & started again.

LETTER 3:

Dear God:
I have been an OK boy this year, and I would really
like a red bike for my birthday. Little Leroy knew he
could not send this letter to God either, so he wrote
another letter.

LETTER 4:

Dear God:
I know I haven't been a good boy this year. I am very
sorry. I will be a good boy if you just send me a red
bike for my birthday. Thank you, Leroy

Leroy knew, even if it was true, this letter was not
going to get him a bike. By now, Leroy was very upset.
He went downstairs & told his mother he wanted to go
to church. Leroy's mother thought her plan had worked
because Leroy looked very sad. "Just be home in time
for dinner," his mother said.

Leroy walked down the street to the church and up to
the altar. He looked around to see if anyone was
there. He picked up a statue of the Virgin Mary. He
slipped it under his shirt & ran out of the church,
down the street, into his house, & up to his room. He
shut the door to his room & sat down w/ a piece of
paper & pen. Leroy began to write his letter to God.

LETTER 5:

I GOT YOUR MAMA. IF YOU WANT TO SEE HER AGAIN, SEND
THE BIKE! #
