Kids Say the Darndest Things

[Dayzee]

I thought it might be fun to hear about memorable 'cute' things our children & grandchildren have said or done. They certainly can bring a smile to ones face. I'll begin with this one:

I had just tried on a new shirt that I had received as a Christmas gift and was looking at myself in the bedroom mirror, my 6 year old grandson came into the room - "Gee, that's a nice shirt Grandma", he said. "I like it a lot Peanut, but I'm hoping it shrinks a tad when I wash it, it's just a little too big for me" His classic response - "That's ok Grandma, you'll grow into it in a couple of years". You can guess what I was thinking, as I grinned from ear to ear.

I picked-up my son one day as we used to go to my sister Carol's house so he could play with his cousins. That particlular time, I informed him we couldn't do as Aunt Carol was in the hospital with pnuemonia.

He thought for a while and said, "my grandma has that and spic and span too!!!! He was wondering why I was laughing so hard.

One of my nieces (age 3 or so at that time) was busy pouring water on the ants that were around the pool gate. My Aunt was also visiting us. My niece deciding to look for the ant named after the woman we called Aunt Polly. She starts questioning each ant if it knows Aunt Polly. 'Polly want some water?" I asked my niece. She is now back to watering the ants.

Was visiting good friends, parents of my 5-year-old goddaughter Amber. Amber's dad had recently been laid off his job and was collecting unemployment. Amber announced that she was going to Burger King to get lunch and asked what we wanted. We (adults) gave our orders, and she disappeared - returned a few minutes later with a basket full of rocks and gave us each our "order." We were impressed that she got each "order" right. When we asked how much we owed, she said she had paid for it herself because her daddy was collecting "disappointment." Out of the mouths of babes :)

My daughter had pulled some stunt when she was around 5. I looked at her and asked, "What makes you think you can get away with that?" She looked up at me with her big eyes and beautiful curly hair and said, "Cause I'm so cute!"

Kinda hard to put your child in a time out when you're trying so hard not to laugh that tears are streaming down your face.

While in an elevator with my 6 year old grandchild at the time, and one other lady, with no warning, little Richie said, "Boy grandma, that lady is REALLY Fat", trying to be a quick thinker, I said, "I know, I need to lose a little weight" hoping the lady was also hard of hearing ....

My favorite Art Linkletter memory, Art had commented to each of the children how nice they looked and the next question to each child was,
"What was the last thing your parents said to you before you came on the show"....One cute little boy said, "My mom said for me to be very careful with this suit because she had to return it to the store right after the show"

One day while watching tv with my daughter the weather man had come on with the weather forecast. As young children can be very chatty, I said to her.....please be quiet, I want to see the weather. My daughter replied....well look outside mommy! I chuckled.

When she was around six-years-old, my youngest niece was in her dad's car admiring a nice shell she had picked up from the beach. When they reached their destination, her dad urged her to get out of the car. "Not now, dad," insisted Melanie. "I'm talking on my shell phone."

We were on a car trip with our two children. Trying to keep the kids from getting bored, I started a game of I Spy. Round 2, my baby girl, then age 8, heard me say, "I Spy with my little eye something that starts with C." I was hoping for "Clouds." After a short pause, she responded, "Chloroflorocarbons." Today she is a pharmacist for CVS.

Many years ago our little boy named Brian:
I came home from work my wife says to me. You better have a chat with Brian, it was reported that Brian ( 6 yrs old) and his best friend Wayne (6 yrs old) were having a peeing contest in the snow.

A few minutes later we were all seated down for supper. I said to Brian: Who won the peeing contest? Brian said Wayne but only by this much! Putting out his hands. Then he turned all Red, put his hands on his head and says: OPS!

Never had a problem any more.
