Kids Say the Darndest Things!

I wish I had a pen and paper at hand for every time I heard my two-year old son say the darndest things. Sometimes they are clever. Sometimes they are funny. Sometimes they are imaginative. Some times they are down to earth. Although I haven't been able to record everything, I wanted to share a few conversations I've had with my son over the past couple of weeks.

Conversation #1:

(Yes this happened while I was using the restroom - I often times have visitors in there)!

Brode - Go poos Mommy?

Mom - Nope. Just potty.

Brode - Oh. Why you wipe your buns then?"

Mom - Uh... 'cause I can't "tap tap" like Brode (we teach him this so there's no drips). =)

Brode -Oh. Your pee-pee broken?? (dead serious, too).

Conversation #2:

(This happened while driving in the car).

Brode - Mom?

Mom- Yes, baby?

Brode - My thumb is getting old.

Mom - Oh yeah?

Brode - Ya. Throw it away. Get me a new one.

Conversation #3:

(This happened on our way home from church yesterday).

Brode - Mom, you married to Daddy?

Mom - Yep, that's right!

Brode - Dad, you married to Mommy?

Dad - Yep!

Mom - Buddy, some day you'll get married to a girl you love, too.

Brode - Oh ya! Give girl ring on her finger some day, me!

Conversation #4:

(This happened this morning while listening to KLOVE radio)

Brode - Mom, who singing that song?

Mom - I don't know his name, baby.

Brode - Oh. Maybe Jack in the Box??

Oh, how I love his precious voice, his precious words, his precious questions. I can't tell you how many times a day I hear, "What's this called, Mom?" or "What's his name called, Mom?" or "What's this 'sposed to do, Mom?" It's non-stop chitter chatter and although I sometimes get tired and don't always have an answer for everything, I acknowledge him and teach him as much as I know. It's amazing how much knowledge these little ones absorb.

If you have a funny story about how your little ones say the darndest things, I'd love to hear about them!
