Mommy Talk – October 2009

Sometimes, we just need to laugh. At ourselves, at life, and a lot of times at our KIDS. They say the darndest things, don’t they?

Here are some quotes from local kiddos that their moms submitted to us:

As we are stepping out in the rain to go to the grocery store Olivia, age 3, goes “Ugh….those silly birds need to quit peeing on my head! It’s gross!”

(I had no idea what she was talking about)

Her brother Casey, age 5, rolls his eyes and goes, “Olivia……don’t you know that rain is from clouds, not from birds?”

Cora Myre, age 4, brought her swimsuit into her grandparents bedroom to change. Her Poppy (grandpa) came in and asked her to please leave while he changed into his suit. She said, “No, that’s ok. I’ll stay”.

Poppy told her “No, you need to leave, I am going to change!”

Cora again insisted with “No, I’ll stay in here. It’s okay. You can just change in the closet!”

Chase, an adorable little three year old, is quite the artist and great observer!

Chase: “SOMEBODY COME AND WIPE MEEEEEE!!”

Daddy: “I’ll be right there!!”

Daddy Sam arrives in the bathroom.

Chase: “Mommy was supposed to come.”

Sam: “To view your poop-art?”

Chase: “MOMMYYYYYYYYY!! Come and look!! I pooped a ‘C’!!!!”

I arrive in the bathroom. Indeed the boy had pooped a “C”.

And yet another ‘Chase’ favorite:

So today at dinner as we ate (YUMMY LOCAL!!) corn on the cob, here’s the little conversation that transpired with three year old Chase…

Chase: “I’m tryin’ to get these hairs off my corn.”

Mom: “Oh buddy…they’re just corn hairs…not people hairs.”

Chase: “Well I don’t like corn hairs…corn hairs aren’t my favorite.”
