Kid Quips

I had fun writing last weeks blogs about a few of the motherly mishaps I have inflicted on my children.  This week I am going to write some quick funny things my children have said to remind me that even though I have messed up some things, I will have stuff to hold against them when they are older!

1. My daughter when she was five said to my police officer husband "Hey Dad, do you put bad people in jail? No, you probably just glue them to the wall, right?"
2. A deer was hit by a car then wandered to our house. There was blood everywhere, mostly on our main walkway. Each time we walked to our cars, my three year old said "watch out for the reindeer blood!" Poor thing thinks one of Santa's reindeer fell from the sky!
3. My husband asked my oldest daughter if she knew what St. Patrick's day was.  She seriously said "yep, it is when there  is gold at the end of the rainbow!"
4. On a very deep conversation with my oldest (who was three at the time) we starting talking about school, and how you go to elementary school, middle school, high school then finally college. "Mommy, what is college?" I told her "it is where you go to school to learn how to be whatever you want to be when you grow up." Without skipping a beat she replied excitedly "I want to be a boy!!!!"
5. After telling my three year old she was smart she responded with a know-it-all attitude "yes my are!!!"
6. We asked both our kids what they wanted to be when the grow up. My oldest said "a police officer like daddy", my two year old said "My want to be a Christmas Tree!"

I have tons of these!  More to come later.
