Beautiful Grammar Lesson

One day, during a lesson on proper grammar, the teacher asked for a show of hands from those who could use the word "beautiful" in the same sentence twice.

First, she called on little Suzie, who responded with, "My father bought my mother a beautiful dress and she looked beautiful in it."

Very good, Suzie," replied the teacher. She then called on little Michael. "My mommy planned a beautiful banquet and it turned out beautifully," he said. Excellent, Michael!"

Then, the teacher called on little Johnny. "Last night, at the dinner table, my sister told my father that she was pregnant, and he said, "Oh that's beautiful, just beautiful!"

That was cute Arvon, thanks for sharing it with us.
not to hurt your feelings or anything, but wouldnt wonderful work also?
IMHO, I think wonderful would be better suited. I dont mean to sound condencending if I do, and I dont want to get you on the defensive either, and Im sorry if I do... Im studying to be an english teacher, you know?

You are right ...wonderful would have worked too. I just put the story here the way I found it. Unless they're very raunchy I usually don't edit them.
