1. (I overheard this one while on LM's end-of-the-year school field trip.)
Boy: (inspecting a juniper bush) "These berries are poisonous!"
LM: "Let's feed them to Natalie!" (the class bully).
Boy: "That would kill her!"
LM: "Oh, okay, we'll let her live."
2. Hubby: (speaking about Ruby Jane) "That kid has a sweet tooth!"
Ruby Jane: "Actually, all my teeth are sweet."
(I guess, by now, we all know who she gets that from....)
3. LM: "Popi, your feet smell like macaroni and cheese."
4. LM: (working hard to make a spaceship out of Legos, but getting frustrated) "Mom, I need some terribly big help right now!"
5. LM: (as Popi was trying to entertain him at a restaurant) "Popi, do you think this is all about you?"
6. LM: Mom, did you leave the "r" in Barbecue Sauce?" (our fish).
Me: "...yeah...?"
LM: "And it didn't work?"
Me: "...??...."
(I'm stumped. You tell me, how does one answer a question so profound?)
Bonus: Talk about profound! Like father like son....
Hubby: (as he presented our gift card to the waiter to pay for our check) "This gift card has money on it."
(The waiter paused for a moment, expecting a less obvious point to follow, but when hubby offered none he took our gift card politely and left. Perhaps hubby was aware of some new crime spree involving the use of zero-balance gift cards at eating establishments and he was simply reassuring our waiter? Oh, hubby!)

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