A little girl was sitting at the kitchen table drawing a picture of her parents with crayons.

She started thinking about her grandparents… what about her grandparents’ parents? What about her parents? He asked his mother thoughtfully: “Mom, where do people come from? I mean, does everyone have a family?” “God created Adam and Eve, and they had children, and those children had children of their own, and so on until today,” her mother replied.

The girl nodded. After a while, she needed a blue crayon for the sky in her picture, so she went to her room to get another box of crayons. When she got to her room, she saw that her father was there and had set up a shelf. He asked her the same question. “Many years ago, there were monkeys from which the human race evolved,” her father replied. Confused, the girl turned to her mother and said, “Mom, you tricked me! You told me the human race was created by God, but my father said they evolved from monkeys!” The mother replied, “Well, dear, it’s very simple. I told you my side of the family, and your father told you his side.
