A father put his three year old daughter to bed, told her a story and
listenedto her prayers which she ended by saying "God bless Mommy, God bless
daddy, God
bless grandma, and goodbye grandpa."

The father said, "Why did you say good-bye grandpa?"

The little girl said "I don't know daddy, it just seemed like the thing to
do."

The next day grandpa died. Father thought it was a strange coincidence.

A few months later the father put the girl to bed and listened to her
prayers,which went like this: "God bless Mommy, God bless daddy and good-bye
grandma.
Next day the grandmother died.

My gosh, thought the father, this kid is in contact with the other side.

Several weeks later when the girl was going to bed the dad heard her  say
"God
bless Mommy and good-bye daddy."

He practically went into shock. Couldn't sleep all night and got up at the
crack
of dawn to go to his office. He was nervous as a cat all day, had lunch sent
in
and watched the clock. He figured if he could get by until midnight he would
be
OK. He felt safe in the office, so
instead of going home at the end of the day he stayed there, drinking
coffee,
looking at his watch and jumping at every sound. Finally midnight arrived,
he
breathed a sigh of relief and went home.

When he got home his wife said "I've never seen you work so late, what's the
matter?" He said "I don't want to talk about it, I've just spent the worst
dayof my life."

She said "You think you had a bad day, you'll never believe what happened to
me.
This morning the mailman dropped dead on our porch."
