The things kids say


So kids are cute, right?! Of course they are...not 100% of the time but overall they're friggin adorable. I find myself ohh'ing and awww'ing or laughing so hard so often at the things my kids say. Like the other day when my son woke up from his nap and said, 'Mama, I love you so much everyday!'. OMG are you kidding me? That was the sweetest! Love my little bubby! Or like when at dinner time he goes through his little mental list of everyone he loves and starts going on and on with names of family, friends, people on tv and people he doesn't even know. lol


One time when I was telling my oldest that a lady that used to work at my high school works at her school in the office and she said, 'WOW! I'm surprised she's not dead yet!'. WHAT? Are you kidding me? It was only 10 years ago that I was in high school. How old does she think I am? (sniff sniff) Or the time that we were listening to the radio and an "old" song (from the 90s) came on and I was so excited b/c I hadn't heard it (whatever it was) in years. I told my daughter that I used to have the cd for that song when I was in high school. Do you know what she asked me? Go ahead...take a guess. YEPPERS, she said, 'Mom, did they even have cds back then?'. OMG..."back then"? Yes, it was, again, like 10 years ago...NOT 70!!! She must think I'm like 90 something!


One of the best was one day my son was taking a nap and I was in the basement doing laundry. I could hear him getting up and walking to his door and calling, 'Mama, I'm awake come and get me.' (we have a baby lock on the inside of his door b/c he has a tendency to get up and roam the house and I would like for our house NOT to burn down. Thank you very much!) So since I was downstairs I yelled up, 'I'll be up in a second bubby!'. He responds, 'Mama??? MAMA???'. So I finish what I'm doing and go upstairs to let him out of his room. When I reach his door I can still hear him going, 'Mama??? What are you doing in there?'. I opened the door and found him sitting next to his vent crying! When he saw me at the door he looked down at the vent and then up at me in total confusion. 'Mama, how did you get in there? Why were you in there? You can get hurt in there (the vent)! DON'T ever go in there again. PLEASE!?'. After I pulled myself together I got a breath long enough to explain to him that I wasn't in the vent. Poor little bubby! He was so worried that I was stuck in there. He still talks about how we don't go in the vents b/c we can get hurt.


I love the things kids say! They're so funny sometimes! Do any of you have any funny kid stories that that you would like to share? Click on 'Comments of Wisdom' and share yours!


A friend sent this to me and I thought it was pretty fitting so I wanted to share it with all of you! Enjoy!

What, you ask, is 'butt dust?' Read on and you'll discover the joy in it!
These have to be original and genuine. No adult is this creative!!


JACK (age 3) was watching his Mom breast-feeding his new baby sister.
After a while he asked: 'Mom why have you got two? Is one for hot and one
for cold milk?'


MELANIE (age 5) asked her Granny how old she was. Granny replied she was
so old she didn't remember any more. Melanie said, 'If you don't
remember you must look in the back of your panties. Mine say five to six.'


STEVEN (age 3) hugged and kissed his Mom good night. 'I love you so much
that when you die I'm going to bury you outside my bedroom window.'


BRITTANY (age 4) had an earache and wanted a pain killer. She tried in
vain to take the lid off the bottle. Seeing her frustration, her Mom
explained it was a child-proof cap and she'd have to open it for her.
Eyes wide with wonder, the little girl asked: 'How does it know it's me?'

SUSAN (age 4) was drinking juice when she got the hiccups. 'Please don't
give me this juice again,' she said.. 'It makes my teeth cough.'

DJ (age 4) stepped onto the bathroom scale and asked: 'How much do I
cost?'


MARC (age 4) was engrossed in a young couple that were hugging and
kissing in a restaurant. Without taking his eyes off them, he asked his
dad: 'Why is he whispering in her mouth?'

CLINTON (age 5) was in his bedroom looking worried. When his Mom asked
what was troubling him, he replied, 'I don't know what'll happen with
this bed when I get married. How will my wife fit in it?'


JAMES (age 4) was listening to a Bible story. His dad read: 'The man
named Lot was warned to take his wife and flee out of the city but his
wife looked back and was turned to salt.' Concerned, James asked:''What

happened to the flea?'

TAMMY (age 4) was with her mother when they met an elderly, rather
wrinkled woman her Mom knew. Tammy looked at her for a while and then
asked, 'Why doesn't your skin fit your face?'

The Sermon I think this Mom will never forget: this particular Sunday sermon...
'Dear Lord,' the minister began, with arms extended toward heaven and a
rapturous look on his upturned face, 'Without you, we are but dust....'
He would have continued but at that moment my very obedient daughter who

was listening leaned over to me and asked quite audibly in her shrill
little four year old girl voice, 'Mom, what is butt dust?'
