Kids say the darndest things! - Page 5

So many things...

- Once we took my daughter to the ER and the female doctor who came in to see us had very yellow front teeth. My daughter flat out asked her why her teeth were so yellow. Embarrassing, but the Dr. explained very nicely that when her mom was pregnant with her she took a medication that caused her teeth to grow in that way.

- Today my daughter wanted to pray so that it would snow and she wouldn't have to go to school tomorrow. She was asking me how to pray and she said "I have to yell at the sky really loud, right?"

- A few weeks ago my 3 year old son woke up and said he had a bad dream that Hayden (his little brother) was Bowser (a villain in the Mario Bros video game series).

My kids say wacky things every day!

That is too cute.
I learned when my oldest was around 2 that I didn't swear while driving. While waiting patiently for the guy in front to make his left turn, she piped up from the back "Move it, Buddy!" Apparently I talk to other drivers, but at least I don't swear! LOL

Gotta love kids' honesty. And you'll never learn if you don't ask! Just too bad she didn't ask you quietly....

Older DD upon tasting a new brand of peanut butter, "Mom I don't like this! It tastes like PEANUTS!"

One last one: Was asked a question about something he did recently...
DS: "I can't remember it!" Older DD: "Woosh, I throw you my memory, now you remember it!"

That is a GREAT line!
What was she expecting the peanut butter to taste like?

Woosh, I wish it worked like that!!!!!!!

However, much to my dismay...the oldest still lives with his father and so does my 13 year old...and recently I heard a bothersome discussion between my kids...it went like this: 'Oh my gosh, I don't move when I'm in there...it's so gross.......'....'yeah..me either...I stay in one spot'.... SO...I said 'um...what are ya'll talking about?'....it seems they were discussing (and mind you this is a 22 year old and a 13 year old...) how gross their bathtub was. Now, this is "THEIR FATHERS HOUSE" not mine...but I was so annoyed...I dove in with a vengence... 'I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU BOYS LEAVE THAT BATHROOM LIKE THAT I TAUGHT YOU BETTER THAT IS HORRIBLE...DO YOU THINK YOUR FATHER WILL CLEAN IT FOR YOU???'...HAHAHA Then strangely, a few days later, while talking to their father he mentioned how they were cleaning the bathroom a few days 'ago'...bahahahaha! I guess I just was disgusted because it makes 'me' look like a bad mom..yk??? Ugh...anyway.......

Kids are funny sometimes like that...never occurs to them to do it themselves...would rather complain about it than fix it....my kids are like that with a few things ...feel your annoyance LOL and yah I can totally relate to your kids reflecting you as a mother kinda thing

My 'current' husband said 'why do you care if the toilets and tub are cleaned at the ex's house'? LOL And I maintain, it's a reflection of 'me'! The ex appreciated it though...ha!!

I was really enjoying this thread and want to bump it back up to the top so I thought I'd tell you about what my youngest (who technically was 11 when she mis-read this) did.
She was reading some teen girl magazine and there was a quiz about how "gross" are you. (then it teaches you to not be so "gross" - like why you should brush twice a day...) Okay, so now you have the background. I'm paraphrasing because I don't have the magazine in front of me, but the question had to do with: Do you eat food that you dropped on the floor? I said it depends on what the food is and where I dropped it. because, yes, if I drop something that is not wet on my own floor, I will usually still eat it. If I drop something wet (like an apple slice or something) I won't. If I drop it in public I won't eat it... etc. Anyway, according to this magazine you should never do that because ( I am about to directly quote my daughter now...) "food dropped on the floor is a magnet for orgasms and bacteria" She read this to me and her Grandma! The two of us hit the floor and my poor daughter had no idea what she had said! I told her it was a sex word, that was all she needed to know to be all embarassed. Of course, I ran to tell her Dad and her uncle (who happened to be over at the time) and they laughed too and my brother in law said he was eating all his food off the floor from now on!
The innocent mistakes are the funniest.
By the way, food dropped on the floor is a magnet for bacteria and organisms.

Oh my! That reminds me of the time I was telling some co-workers about the orgasms in my daughter's eye!

Yes, I did! It never got better after the laughter quieted down. My boss at the time says, "You know Tracy, maybe you better knock off work early today." I left shortly after. I was just totally embarrased by the whole ordeal. Now if it happened today, I would just laugh and move on. But, at 26 yrs of age, it was too much for me. Funny how you change over the years.

About children. The funniest thing that my son said was to his grandmother, my mother-in-law. He yelled to her, "Nanny! I'm through!" So she went to the bathroom to wipe his butt and she said, "Bobby, you are going to start school soon. You need to learn to do this yourself now!" She said he grinned up at her and said, "But, Nanny, it's your grand butt."

I suppose that was a privilege. Heh.

Hey Angela.....the google adds are mute. Even they don't know what kind of add to attach to the word orgasms. Too funny.

I saw another song one earlier on the thread and thought of this one:

When my brother was younger he loved the eiffel 65 song "blue" but he thought the lyrics were "I'm blue da-ba-dee-da-ba-dye, If I was green I would die"

UndrThTblNDrumng · 03-30-2010, 02:07 PM

my son had the hiccups recently and, between hiccups, he told me that he thinks he swollowed a 600 or 300 bump camel
