\"mousechurch\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Little Timmy Mouse snuck into church every Tuesday evening.\u00a0 He would scurry around from pew to pew…. and finally… in frustration…. he would leave.<\/p>\n

But Young Tim was like clockwork.\u00a0 Every Tuesday night… he come back and make his way all around the church.\u00a0 Yet each time, he would leave with a huff of exasperation.<\/p>\n

(You see… it was always Tuesday…. because….\u00a0 Monday night he had soccer; Wednesday was Mouse Scouts;\u00a0 Thursday was band practice;\u00a0 Friday nights he always had a game; Saturday night was Drug the Cat Night; and Sundays the church was too busy.\u00a0 So. Tuesdays.)<\/p>\n

Anyway.\u00a0 One night, Sister Margaret Eloise caught Timmy in the church.<\/p>\n

“Little Timmy…. what on earth are you doing here on a Tuesday night?”<\/p>\n

He replied… “Welllllll….. on Monday’s I have soccer…. on Wednesdays…”\u00a0 …. and on an on.<\/p>\n

“No Timmy.\u00a0 Why exactly are you here?”
\n“Because my Grandma told me I could find Baby Cheeses if I went to church.\u00a0 And I love Baby Cheeses.”<\/p>\n

So Sister Margaret Eloise went to the Church Snack Bar… and got him some\u00a0 Baby Swiss.\u00a0 And a side of French Fries with Ketchup.<\/p>\n

Timmy, was…. eternally grateful.
\nAnd he knew… deep down… that Grandma was always right.\u00a0 Heck… she ALWAYS won at Bingo after all.<\/p>\n

And good old Sister Maggie Ella.\u00a0 She was as kind as they came.<\/p>\n
