A little boy was strolling along the beach looking for the best seashells to put on top of the sandcastle he had just built with his mother. As he bent down to pick up a pearly white shell, he got a fright when he saw the carcass of a seagull half buried in the sand. He dropped his bucket and ran over to his mother.
Safe in her arms, he pointed her toward the dead bird.
“What happened to it mama?”
“The seagull died and went up to heaven.”
The little boy looked at the seagull, then at his mother, “And god threw him back down?”
