Catholics will understand this better than us non-Catholics, but I thought it was funny. My apologies if you don't.
A little Catholic boy tells his mother that he wants a new Nintendo DS. His mother tells him
"Go and write a letter to the baby Jesus, and tell Him what you'll do to get one".
So the boy starts writing: "Dear baby Jesus, if I get a new Nintendo DS, I'll be good for a whole year."
Then he sighs to himself, "There's no way I can be good for a whole year", throws the paper away and starts over.
"Dear baby Jesus, if I get a new Nintendo DS, I'll be good for six months".
Again, he sighs to himself, "There's no way I can be good for six months", and again throws the paper away.
He thinks a minute, takes the statue of the Virgin Mary from his dresser and puts it in his closet, and begins to write anew:
"Dear baby Jesus, if you ever want to see your mother again..."
