Kids Say the Funniest Things 3
We've got some more funny ones today! I hope I have remembered them all. If you don't see your's, please do remind me!
Here we go:
Here's one from Sue, grandma extraordinaire:
I do have to share one little story about little "D" our grandson. This happened about five years ago when he was just beginning to be potty trained. We would take him to the potty and tell him to "Just Try" (because he would often state he didn't have to go.) We were all seated around the table at a very nice restaurant and we decided that it would be a good idea to visit the restroom before the meal came. My son in law got up to take little "D" and he turned to Bill and asked him if was going to go with them. Bill said "No." Little "D" said in a voice loud enough for all to hear " Come on Papa, you need to Just Try to go Potty!"
Sherry tells us:
My three year old confided in our neighbor, "I know a Bible verse."
"What is it?" she asked expecting to hear a simple verse.
"Never play with matches," said my Biblical scholar.
This one from Jill:
Brian and I were at a family Christmas party many years ago and one of my young cousins told Brian that he looked like Abraham Lincoln.
Brian says, "Was that a compliment?"
And Johnny says, "No! He was a PRESIDENT!"
And I saved the best (or worst!) for last. I think every mom groaned and grinned when she read THIS one from Rosemary:
This story needs a bit of background. First, I had my children in the Old Days when babies were diapered with cloth diapers. Used ones were put into a pail of soapy water until they were laundered. (YUK).My oldest son sometimes watched Sesame Street while I tended our newborn son. One day, a group of farmer puppets sang a rollicking song called "Slop the Hogs." Well. The next day as I tended the baby downstairs, the 3 year old was upstairs in his bedroom. After a while it occurred to me that he was mighty quiet. I went up to check on him, and he was sitting on his bed, hands folded in his lap, silent. The diaper bucket and potent contents were spilled onto the carpet in front of him. As I entered the room and gasped at what I saw, he looked up at me and quietly said,
"But mommy, I was just trying to slop the hogs..."
I have my own horrifying story to share, but I'll save it for later.
