Lil' Pete farted. Pete says, "That was musical." Lil' Griff replies, "Lets play musical chairs!"

Pete says, "I'm feeling flakey today." Lil' Pete says, "Yeah me too." Lil Griff says, "My scalp is flakey."

Several years back I attended a Boy Scout campout with my son's troop. My younger son was about 12 and I guess I never realized how well we had kept the illusion of Santa Claus delivering presents alive for him. He and another kid were bunking in the tent next to mine, and I overheard them talking after "lights out" was called. They were talking about people they thought were important or heros. The other boy who was black, said his hero was President Kennedy. My son said his hero was Santa Claus because he gave away so many presents.

The other kid said, "I don't believe in Santa anymore."
My son replied, " I know there has to be a Santa because my parents are too cheap to give us the kind of gifts we get at Christmas!"

I almost died laughing to myself.

While we were praying during thanksgiving, my stupid baby cousin kept on saying "cheese!".

My three-year-old says, as he is closing the door to our van, after trying to lock down my wheel-chair by himself; my wife trying to keep him from breaking all of his fingers...
"I can do things all by myself in this big crazy-crazy world MOM!".
*Very exasperated sigh & rolling of the eyes*


My wife messed-up and cursed with "oh, Hell" where he could hear recently... he misheard her and now his favorite exclamation is "oh, hound!"

Last weekend my daughter (almost 4) went to a freinds birthday party. Unfortunately it was from 1-3, prime nap time. She obviously needed one when I picked her up. She fell asleep in the car on the way home, and unfortunately woke up in a very foul mood when I tried to carry her to her bed. I put her in bed and told her she needed to take a nap, wherupon she threw a fit. I closed the door and left to get her stuff out of the car.
When I come back in the house my husband informs me I was told to "get my ass back in her room and get her some food!"

Good thing I didn't hear her or she still wouldn't be sitting down.

I forgot about this one, from April or so. My memory was jogged by another conversation.

The Scene: the emergency room waiting area at a local hospital. During little league play, my son, 7, decided he needed to ask the coach something so he got up to go ask. He passed by the on-deck circle at just the wrong time and got clocked beside his right eye with a bat. It was immediately apparent that he would need stitches, so we got a bandage on him from the first aid kit and I drove him over to the hospital.

By this time he had calmed down and I was doing my best to keep him from freaking out at the thought of stitches ("They're gonna sew my skin?????")

"Dad, did you ever get hit with a baseball bat?"

"No, never did."

"Get hit with a ball?"

"No, I didn't, I didn't play baseball."

"Oh. <pause> Had they not invented baseball when you were a boy?"

At this point all the other folks in the waiting room were enjoying this quite a bit as I provided the boy with some much-needed historical context.

reminds me of my favorite Calvin:
Calvin: "Dad, why are old photographs black and white? Didn't they have color film back then?"
Dad: "Of course they did. In fact, those old photographs ARE in color. It's just that the WORLD was black and white then.
Calvin:"Really?"
Dad: "Yeah, the world didn't turn color until sometime in the '30s, and it was pretty grainy color for a while, too.
Calvin:"Oh."
Dad: "Well, truth is stranger than fiction."
Calvin: "THEN WHY ARE OLD PAINTINGS in color? If the world was black and white, wouldn't artists have painted that way?"
Dad: "Not necessarily. A lot of great artists were insane."
Calvin: "BUT... but how could they possibly have painted in color? Wouldn't their paints have been in shades of gray back then?"
Dad: "Of course, but they changed color like everything else in the '30s.
Calvin: "So why didn't black and white photos turn color too?"
Dad: "Because they were color photographs of black and white, remember?"
