query_posts and post_parent -> not working

On my home page of the site I’m working on (which uses home.php) I want to display content from different pages from parent with id of 96 and 101, and the title of the pages.

With this in mind I used

<div id="about">
		<?php query_posts('posts_per_page=1&post_type=page&post_parent=96'); the_post(); ?>
		<h1><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
		<?php the_content(); ?>
		</div>

It seemed to work at first and I was excited. Then I placed another query on the page

<div class="information">
<?php query_posts('posts_per_page=1&post_type=page&post_parent=101'); the_post(); ?>
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<div class="underline"><img src="<?php echo bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/underline.png" width="90" height="8" alt="underline"></div>
<?php the_content(); ?>
</div>

Then both areas were displaying the parent 101 data. Then I refreshed and it won’t display any data in those divs.

I tried isolating it by taking out &post_parent=96 When I do that it goes back to posting the most recent page created. I don’t understand why it won’t pull in the id I’m asking for.
