Update: If you liked a different one best, link to it in the comments. There were definitely more than 3 worth reading.
I still like S.D. Smith’s story the best, but Bad Roads made me laugh out loud.
Argh! Such a hard choice! :)
I also would have voted for S.D. Smith’s Aletha story. But if we were voting for the funniest I’d have to agree with Jodi.
Awww, thanks for picking mine as a finalist. But I must confess I laughed convulsively for minutes after I read Bad Roads. Kudos to their story!
Hard choices! I like the S.D. Smith one too!
I reeeeeeally liked all three… but I had to choose one.
I loved Bad Roads. It made me laugh!!!
Thanks for picking my story to be in the finals! It was so fun to read many of the different entries. It just goes to show that kids say the funniest things! I was also blown away by the creative storytelling from all those who wrote a children’s story vs. a story about a child! Keep blogging! It gives this SAHM something to do when baby naps :)
i “yiked” them all.
All three are grand.
I voted for the “poop” and “pee” one.
I almost engaged in the subject of the story from laughing so hard.
Oh, those ‘bodily functions’ stories always hit the funny bone!
Loved them all but Bad Roads gets my vote!

Thanks Abraham! You made my night!
This was such a fun contest–I enjoyed reading all the entries. You should do it again!
The poop story–that’s a winner!! So funny.
Oh my word! This is NO contest – BAD ROADS – particularly because it doesn’t involve a parent. That poor uncle!! What a trooper!
I’m not sure I have ever heard a story as funny as BAD ROADS…come on everybody, you HAVE to vote for that one! (no offense to the other finalists but that is seriously funny!)
Ok, I am really bummed I didn’t win.!!! LOL Seriously I did not expect to, but that Bad Roads was hilarious!!!! Poor uncle! That one got my vote even though the singing one was pretty funny too!
I was taking a sip of Coke while reading “Bad Roads”. Let’s just say more ended up in my nose than down my throat.
I think the c-section story is extremely well written and very clever!!
Can I vote for the S.D. Smith story instead?
[...] win the 22 Word Children’s Story Competetion, much to my wife’s surprise. But you can vote for the three finalists, which are all good (but one says “poop” and “pee” in it, so that may be [...]
