The Chicken And The Egg

I drove to Brisbane today, and as they do on occasion the kids were talking about a variety of theological topics. Somehow, as it can happen in kid talk, the topic turned to chooks.

So to throw a spanner in the works I asked:

"Which came first, the chicken or the egg?"

Princess: "The egg!"

Tiger: "The chook"

Princess: "The egg!"

Tiger: "The chook! Because on the 5th day God created birds not eggs, therefore the chook came first"

Daddy: "I thought the animals were created on the 6th day."

Tiger: "Yes, but the birds were on the 5th and a chook is a bird"

Princess: "And the the sea creatures were made on the 5th day too!"

Tank: "And then God said: 'Why did the chook cross the road?'"

Love you Tank! You make me laugh!

Well done Tiger for solving such a complex riddle (and teaching your Daddy about creation!).
