Kids are the best! I wish that I had written down all the things mine said although I still remember a ton of them. I’ve tried to do better with the grandkids.

2 year old Theo is having fun playing with his penis. His mom and I gently remind him that its totally ok, but its something to do in the privacy of home.
He comes out of his room the other day, looks at me with his hand down his pants, and asks:
“Jilly, it’s a PIRATE thing?

So glad you are writing these down! And even happier that you are sharing them! Priceless….

The past couple of days of been full of questions from my little 5yr old sweetpea. Here are a few:

“Where do you find the person you will marry?”

“How is it that I came out to look like me?”

“Can two girls get married?”

“Do I have to get old and be a grandma?” (something she clearly does not want to do!) xoxo, ~ M.

Yesterday we were off. The phone was ringing & I was running to get it. My 11 year old said, “Run Forest Run!”

I used your 9 things post on my blog.

My 7-year-old girl hops into the van after school and says….”I lost a booger today.”

From the mouth of my almost 3yo after she heard me apologizing to a friend for my overpowering “eau du gym”:

“Mommy, you don’t stink. Chicken poop is stinky. It’s DEEEskusting. You’re not DEEEskusting.”

Whew! What a relief!

OK…Harry today…I asked him, are these clothes (folded in a pile on the table in his room) clean or dirty? He said “Those are clean. Those are my ‘handy downs’”! He got this fancy outfit from his cousin…apparently too special to put with the rest of his clothes! It was really hard for me not to laugh. So glad I got the opportunity to share. XO

My favorite (and only) son is 17 years old and he always makes me laugh. I’m sure that you just had to be here, but I went to my bedroom to get something, I forgot what it was when I got there, so when I came out he was at the other end of the hallway and I asked him “what did I come in here for?”, he pointed very dramatically to another part of the house and said “Look! A shiny thing!”. It made me laugh and laugh, he knows how easily his mom is distracted.
