another reader's digest joke

My four-year-old daughter was sick of being the butt of her older brother's practical jokes. So I pulled her aside and told her how to get back at him.

"Tell him there's an elephant in the back yard" I suggested.

Lucie loved the idea. She ran toward her brother's room, calling, "Mike! Mike!". Suddenly she stopped, turned around, and ran to the back window, shouting, " I want to see it first!"
