Why Parents have Grey Hair..?

The boss of a big company needed to call one of his employees about an urgent problem with one of the main computers, dialed the employee's home phone number & was greeted with a child's whisper, "Hello, Is your daddy home?" he asked.

"Yes," whispered the small voice.

"May I talk with him?"

The child whispered, "No."

Surprised, & wanting to talk with an adult, the boss asked, is your mommy there?"

"Yes."

"May I talk with her?"

Again the small voice whispered, "No."

Hoping there was somebody with whom he could leave a message, the boss asked, "Is anybody else there?"

"Yes," whispered the child, "a policeman."

Wondering what a cop would be doing at his employee's home, the boss asked,

"May I speak with the policeman?"

"No, he's busy", whispered the child.

"Busy doing what?"

"Talking to Daddy, Mommy, and the Fireman", came the whispered answer.

Growing concerned & even worried as he heard what sounded like a helicopter through the earpiece on the phone the boss asked,

"What is that noise?"

"A hello-copter" answered the whispering voice.

"What is going on there?" asked the boss, now alarmed.

In an awed whispering voice the child answered, "The search team just landed the hello-copter."

Alarmed, concerned, & even more then just a little frustrated the boss asked, "What are they searching for?"

Still whispering, the young voice replied along with a muffled giggle:

"ME..."
