Kids say the darnest things

[Suzie Qzie]

Anyone have any one liners or short stories from the misunderstanding point of view of a child? Being a mother of 2 I have some, but one of my favorites came from my oldest daughter ( at the time about 1 1/2 and the only child) Her room was completely in shambles, toys just covered every inch of her floor. I said "Hunter what did you do?" (as if it wasn't obvious) she said, "not me", so I said, "So who did it then." she said, "mommy" (I found it interesting that I don't recall having dementia as of yet, but if I did would I recall it anyway?) At any rate I said ,"Hunter are you lyin'?" She simply replied,"RRRROOOOOAAARRRR"

I was playing a board game with my kid several years ago, and apparently he hadn't paid close enough attention to the cartoons I require him to watch. He lost the game to which he said 'Curses!! Soiled again!' I had to correct him. 'The correct phrase is Curses, FOILED again... soiled means ya crapped your pants. We both got a pretty good laugh out of that one, in fact we STILL do.

My youngest, who was 6 at the time, was having a very serious discussion with his cousin on how to pronounce the word "Spaghetti". Ryan insists to this very day that it is "ska-betty", and Cole argued back that it is most definitely "pis-getty". Even when an adult tried to correct them, neither would give in. It was the funniest conversation between two little kids that I ever had the priviledge of overhearing!


One of my seventh grade students asked me how old I am (I'm told that I look younger than my age). Rather than tell her outright, I thought I'd give her a clue, so I said that weren't 50 stars on the American flag when I was born. She pondered this for a few moments and then her eyes grew wide and she exclaimed, "You mean there were only thirteen !?" I chuckled for the rest of the day about that one! (One never knows....perhaps I really have aged extremely well over the past 200 years!!!)

"Hail" isn't exactly a word that you hear everyday. We are typically unfamiliar with it. So it shouldn't have been surprising that, as a 6 year old, I usually said, "Hell, Mary!" (full of grace...)

I used to go with a girl who babysat a young boy, he used to tell her that their house was haunted and he could see spirits. One night to humor him she said I see one over by the window and the kid looked and replied it must have piss ta peered cause I can't see it.

When Giggles was a little boy, he couldn't say "Goose Pimples" they were, and have always been known as "Mouse Pimples". They funny thing was he could never say it with a straight face.

Well, let's see, with 6 kids to my name, I have quite a few...

My oldest used to tell us to buckle our "Space butt" (seat belt)
He also called a helicopter a "hoddidocker"
My daughter said she wanted Chocolate Street ice cream (rocky road

I'll get back to you after I check my "kid" journal.

I work in a preschool and a 5 yr old ask me today what one of my jibbits in my croc said and I told her it said,"I love Jesus". She said, "I didn't know big people loved Jesus too."
