1. LM: "Mom, can I watch Sid the Science Kid on TV?"
Me: "No. Sorry Bud, but we don't get TV shows anymore, remember?" (No cable TV, no converter box....)
LM: "Oh yeah, 'cause we're a poor family, right?"
(For the record, we don't tell our kids that we're poor. Oh, wait...yes we do.)
2. (After hearing me insist his, er..."budding" sister go put on a bra): "I can't wait until I grow boobs!" (He was promptly corrected.)
3. Ruby Jane: (inspecting hubby's hairy chest) "Daddy, you really could be Big Foot."
4. LM: (to the edgy-looking female barista with a lip ring) "What happened to your lip?"
Barista: "I stuck a needle through it."
LM: "It makes me wanna throw-up!" (Then proceeds to behave as though he actually might.)
5. (Hubby playing a bit of keep-away in his classroom as LM and Ruby Jane actively vied for his macadamia nuts for their after-school snack.)
Me: "Quit trying to grab your daddy's nuts and let's go!"
(Sheepish, I scurried outta there real quick-like.)
6. Hubby: "Do you have any homework tonight, LM?"
LM: "Look in my folder, fool!"
I know some of you have children who say the darnedest things as well (a certain niece of mine comes to mind)-- so post their silly sayings in a comment and add to the smiles!

I love comments. Comments make a blog a conversation rather than a monologue. So join in! (Just, um, be nice and all that.)
