The Things Kids Say

[Gwen]

this last week.....

my 7 yr old brought me a small toy and a string and asked me to tie the toy to the end of the string. after doing so i asked him what he wanted it like that for. he begins to swing it in front of my face and says "now i can hypnotize you.......and when i learn to snap i'll unhypnotize you" hummm

same son last night had some leftover food on his plate i thought the dog would appreciate so i tell him to give it to the dog. we whistle for our dog and my son can't whistle yet. without discussion or hesitation he steps out side and yells "whistle, whistle, whistle" needless to say the dog didn't come.

same son lol we went to the park last saturday and there was another family there. my son askes the mother, "did i hear you say his name was samuel?" the mom says yes and they start talking. my son tells her there is a boy in his class named samuel. he askes how old her son is, 3, white blonde haired kid. then he says "well, the samuel in my class looks just like him, only he's like 8, but he looks just like him, but he has brown skin and black hair."

I've been trying to explain death and the resurrection to my son and he's had lots of questions ever since my friend died of cancer. He asked me, "Is this her first time dying?"

Last week I went to my neices 3rd birthday. She was unrapping presents and when she came to one she said, "This is freakin awsome!" We all died laughing. A week or so before her mom told her I was having a baby and she asked where it was. Pointing to my stomache I told her it was in my tummy still. She said let me see and lifted up my shirt to look at my belly. She then proceeded to put her eye to my bellybutton and exclaim, "Its dark in there!" Lol!

My five year old little cousin just started kindergarten this year at a private school in Georgia. Today, the art teacher was going over colors and how mixing two colors together produces a new color. After going over the examples of red and blue make purple and yellow and blue make green, my precious little cousin without any hesitation raised her hand and said:

"And, purple and gold make LSU!"

I just wish I could have seen the teacher's face!

Saw this on another board and it made me remember this thread.

On the way home from getting groceries tonight my 7 year old daughter and five year old son were arguing (as usual).

The decided to have a contest to see who could count the highest.

Ryan (7) starts rattling off numbers....she stops when she gets high enough that she knows that she will win (Bubba can only go up to 20 or so).

Ryan: "Ha!"

Bubba: "Oh yeah, well I can count higher than that...1...2...skip a few...99...100!"

Needless to say that made Ryan mad, 'cause he cheated...blah, blah, blah.

My four-year-old told me as we were going to pick up his brothers, "Mom, when I grow up, I don't want to get married."

"Why not?"

"Because that's disgusting!"

"Why is that disgusting?"

"Because if I get married, I have to get kissed! I don't want to get kissed!"

Guess we won't have to worry about him for a while.

I was looking at my page on this site, listening to the music and watching the pics of my family...

Bubba comes over and starts watching too.

Bubba: "Hey, there's me. Yay, I like me."

when my oldest son was 8 and about to get baptised he came in the kitchen one day with a worried look on his face. I asked him what was wrong. He said he was worried about getting baptised, i asked him why? He said "I hope dad doesn't pray too long I don't think i can hold my breath very long i've been practicing but I don't think I can do it.

When my son was about 3 or so, he looked out the living room window and exclaimed
"Oh LOOK someone's turned the moon on!" Guess he figured lights have switches......
Made me chuckle.

We do "spotlights" in Primary where each week one child from Jr. Primary and one from Sr. Primary gets brought up front and some facts about them are shared with everyone. Today in response to "My favorite memory of time with family is..." was "to eat popcorn and watch Harry Potter and the Goblins of Fire."
