It's 7:30 in the morning. My oldest son just made me laugh. He said "When I touch my body I'm starting to feel like a man." I asked him how can he tell. He said because his face and back are itchy. LOL!!!! What are some funny things you have heard lil' ones say lately?
When my daughter was little just in panties if she got a wedgie she would say her butt is tangled up.
Kids are awesome. I used to work with 3 & 4 year olds, they used to say such awesome things...if I remember some I'll definitely post. Good stories so far!
I miss being around kids. I miss my 6 year old cousin... she's just the best kid ever and she's so smart. I once talked about politics with her and she said "politics is stupid, lets go build a snowman". I wish everyone would think like that.
the other day this overly articulate 9 year old comes up to me and says 'so, what's your opinion on the C word' I said I thought it was a word that shouldn't be used byt adults or kids and she said 'well my dad yells it out all the time and my mom does but not as much'. Knowing her parents I gathered that we were talking about different C words heh.
Maybe that word was Crap? I just got back from my 4 year old's Parent/Teacher conference. I am SO PROUD of him!!!!!!! Both my boys had SUPER report cards and AWESOME compliments. YEAH!!!! We are going to do something special for them both. My boys can say the funniest things at times. Sometimes I am amazed at some of the stuff that comes out of their mouths, some of it's funny and sometimes it's just so sweet. My 5 year old was praying at dinner last night and he thanked God for this wonderful dinner that Mommy made. You'd have to know us to appreciate that because we don't go to Church. We are not actively involved in the Church. He's just a super special lil' guy.
that's so great Laura!!!! Yeah I made her whisper it in my ear to make sure it was crap and not THE c word. heh
I had a girl who I was taking care for after school one day a week (she was 8 at the time) be mad at me because I said 'shit'.. hehehe.. that's not such a bad word.. really.. hehe.. ah well..
My little cousin Steven said, "I know a nursry rhyme. Little Miss Muppett Sat on a Tuppett eating her curds and well...Long came a spider and sat down beside her, said, "HEY BITCH WHATCHA GOT IN THE BOWL???'" I had this look on my face like omg! and he said, "I learned it myself, You like it?" Big smile on his face...I told him to tell his mommy... Holly
kai is just a fountain of cute. for example, she woke up before i did this morning, which has never happened before. so i JUMPED outta bed, panic stricken, womdering what my kid is up to. i walked out to the living room, and she had pulled up her chair, grabbed her coloring book and crayons, and was calmly coloring. when she saw me, she looked up and said "Good morning, Mommy." she's 2.
thanks. when she was done, she picked up all her crayons and her book and put them away without me even having to ask. i was STUNNED.
I love it when my boys do stuff like that. One morning I woke up and my 5 year old made his bed. He did a very good job too. He's dressed himself already before I was even outa bed. He's fairly independant, sometimes too independant. For example: He came home today and told me he's going to ride a different bus home and the one he's on is too loud. I didn't get any notices about there being a bus switch. I almost had a heart attack because he'd do just that, switch buses and think it's okay because it rides past our house anyway. That is like a nightmare thought thinking I'm standing there waiting for him and he doesn't get off the bus. Tomorrow I'm calling the school (giving him the benefit of the doubt) just to make sure there are no bussing changes.
The same kind of story happened to me as well KC.......... One day when my daughter was three, she did not come in my bedroom and wake me up like she usually does. Well, I was laying in bed and heard a comotion going on in the kitchen. I got out of bed very quietly and snuck up on my daughter. She pushed a kitchen chair from one side of the kitchen to the other side to a counter so she could climb up onto the counter. She went to the cookie jar and she was pulling out a chocolate chip cookie. I asked her, "Emily, what are you doing"? Em replied,"Get some breakfast daddy. Would you like some"? I laughed for like five minutes straight and then I got some milk out of the refridgerator and we both proceded to have a cookie before I made pancakes and sausage................. ~namaste~
God, these stories are heartwarming! I don't have kids; instead, I have nieces. They're fun, too, and I don't have to do any of the work! My sister has a 5 year old and a 3 year old. They are both extremely bright. The five-year-old's vocabulary is incredible! I work nights, and she and I were discussing my schedule the other day, and why I could not be over to visit early in the morning because I would be sleeping. She looks at me and says, deadpan and with a serious tone, "Uncle Jeffrey, you're very nocturnal." :O Jaw drops. This 5-year-old knows the word "nocturnal"!?! This, I figure, has to be attributable to the fact that my sister talks to her kids like they're adults. She refuses to talk down to them, so instead they learn up to her! Oh, and my brother is also visiting with his wife and 19-week-old girl. She loves to be held and carried around the pool at the hotel (it's nice and warm). We took pictures of them dunking her under so she could learn to hold her breath. Truth! It's so cool realizing that she DOES! The next day, as he was holding her in the pool, she just leaned over (remember, she's an infant) and plopped her face into the water! She immediately pulled back up and had a scrunched up, "Whoa, what-the-hell-was-that?!" face on -- not crying, but ALL kindsa displeased!! LMAO!! -Jeffrey
I had a class in the daycare at my high school when I was a junior, and I pretty much just napped through it or drew pictures or whatever.... but there was this one kid I called Opie, because he was this little red headed freckle faced squirt. HE was pretty cute. I can't remember his name... John something. Anyway, he asked me to stop listening to my cd player and play with the firetruck with him one day, so I did, because he was my favorite. He said there was this house on fire and we had to put it out, so we made truck noises and did some fire-putting out stuff, until he decided that he house wasn't going to stop burning. I was about to return to my little cot on the floor in defeat, when he told me to wait a second while he ran over to get some Pick UP Sticks. I was like, "What the hell, Opey?" and he said, "Well, if there's a fire, we might as well roast some marshmallows." So we did.
