If “Kids Say the Darndest Things” ever makes a comeback, some of our children really ought to make an appearance. I suspect they would be a big hit. Here are a few lines that we’ve heard around here recently:
Mommy, Gameboy feels wessiless. Can he have a book?
(Wessiless = Restless)
At-shully…
(Actually…)
Speaking of which…
We’re really hot from playing. Can we have some refreshners?
When I grow up, I might eat my wife. If I marry an apple.
Sometimes… I just like… to stare.
(A dazed-looking child, in response to the question “What’s going on?”)
Mom! No! No!
(A wide-eyed 2 year old, pointing to a coloring page that he just pulled out of the trash. What was I thinking, throwing that away?)
Leave my house now. Or I will shoot you.
(Our soft and delicate 4 year old, while playing with dolls.)
What are some things that your children have said that made you smile, laugh, or pause in dumbfoundedness?
This wasn’t funny but it took us all by surprise. I lost our las tbaby 3 months ago when I was 16 weeks pregnant. The other day in the kitchen my 7 year old looked at me and said, “Mommy that all day sickness that you had with Elias was for nothing.” Out of the mouth of babes. I am o.k. with her saying this because i am sure it helps her to heal also.
Very cute comments your kids made.
Susan, That is very sweet and sad all at once. :-(
Remember (and I know that you already know this) that it wasn’t for nothing. Dear little Elias is waiting for you in Heaven, and you will see him again when you get there. ((Hugs))
Cute post. The other day my daughter looked on as my husband and I kissed. She had walked right up to us, stood right next to us and looked at me with wild, curious eyes. “How did you learn to DO that????” she asked!
