Going through an old filing cabinet I found pages from a diary I must of kept when the kids were little . The first page was entitled 'Funny things the kids say '.
Entry from 1985 : ( Our son J*** was 4 and his brother T** one .) Today J*** asked me if T*** will grow up to be a girl ?? !
What funny things do you remember your kids saying ?
That's hilarious TM! My oldest daughter was a thumb-sucker until an "older" age. We were at a park, maybe she was 5 or 6 by then. She was sucking her thumb right there out in the open, and some kid made fun of her for it. She took her thumb out, looked at him, and quipped "It's the first time i ever tried it!"
We used to call my son Eric "handsome" when he was little. He was at the McDonald's playland, around 2 or 3 years old. A kid asked his name, and he said, "handsome." Oh man, we were ROFL!!
Sorry i gave 2, we had a large family. LOL
When my grandaughter was in the transition from diaper to potty training she walked by me as I sat in the living room and I asked, "sweetie, did you poop your pants?" Without missing a beat she continued on her way and said over her shoulder, "not yet".
our youngest son saw a lady at the store with alot of make-up on ,and he looked up at me and said, " Mom is she real ?"
Waking up to a foggy morning, my 3 1/2 year old daughter looked out the window and exclaimed,
"Oh, it's so pretty!! Look, Mama, the clouds are on the ground today!!"
Our oldest daughter came home from school, visibly upset.
Me: What's wrong, sweetie?
Her: Dyllan (her classmate) says I'm not smart!
Me: Well, I think you're very smart!
Her: But Dyllan says that kids are smart only if their parents are smart. And you're not very smart, Daddy!
Me:
The lesson I learned that day is that I must have an answer to every question that my kids ask, even if it's wildly inaccurate. Saying, "I don't know" is no longer an option
We had to fill out the goverment census a couple of weeks ago and Carrot was asking Babysprout the questions.
First question was:
What is your religion? Babysprout's answer. Jewish. Lol
What is your nationality? Babysprout's answer. Welsh.
Do you have a mental health illness? She thought for about 5 minutes and came with this answer. Hayfever!
So she is a welsh jew with a mental illness of hayfever. Being as she lives no where near wales and she has no religion and very rarely suffers with hayfever, we really don't know where she came up with this stuff!#
Peace
my son was hopping in the playground, his teacher asked why he was hopping. His response, "I came through a teleporter but it left my leg behind. I'm waiting for it to turn up."
In the summer when it was hot he couldn't cope and his teacher found him laying face down on the school carpet she asked him what he thought he was doing he said "Dribbling."
At the last memorial we attended when the bread was passed to him he looked like he was about to take some so I hastily removed the plate from his hands and said "don't take any just pass it along" he said "why did they pass it to me if they didn't want me to have some?"
Another little boy in an old congregation proudly told his teacher that the memorial was a special meeting with beer and toast.
Each day is a fascinating journey into my son's mind. He has just made me a salad with a tomato a whole unpealed carrot and half a stick of celery.

He is very funny and having Aspergers means he says what he thinks with no editing.
