Kids write/say the damndest shit!

My friend has a 5 year old daughter in kindergarten who had to write something about her mom. When her daughter brought it home, she was a little shocked and embarrassed:
























For the record, mom is not 16, she is 20 something, but all of the other kids were saying their moms were 50 and 60. When she was asked, she thought they were all saying 16 so that's what she thought she was supposed to say. The other stuff is pretty normal. the last item, however is what she was most embarrassed. "My mom is funny when she gets on my dad's back" Now, I thought this little girl either walked in on them doing something weird, or that her dad had said "get off my back!" and the little girl heard it. Mom says, "My husband gives me piggyback rides around the house" Yeah suuuuure


Another friend has a 4 year old daughter. One night, her dad was giving her a bath. Before the bath, dad was trying to take out the earrings. The little girl told her daddy that only mommy knows how to take out the earrings. Daddy reassured her by telling her when he was younger he wore an earring, so he knows how to do it. Her eyes got really big and she said, "You mean you wore earrings when you were a little girl?"

I sooooooooooo miss that age. They are almost enough to make me want to have another one...

My daughter did one of those things for mother's day when she was 5, and also said I was something like...18 or something. So I would have given birth at 13.

Loved it. ;)

Good thing she didn't have to guess a weight. One of my kiddos did that one time. Thankfully, he was very kind.

Aww how sweet! But I totally have to confess of being guilty of the..."go play in your room" one!

Gulp!

I remember a funny line from my son's Kindergarten teacher at the First Day of School parents' meeting: "Parents, as I Kindergarten teacher, I know that kids say the darndest things, so try not to believe everything your child comes home and says I said at school. And I'll try not to believe all the things they tell me each week."
There were lots of nervous parents in the room!

thanks for stopping by our blog. I have to say I would love to be five again, although mentally I have to say I'm pretty sure I still am.

If you've got a problem, we'd love to hear from you. We're a lot cheaper than a therapist and a lot crappier too.

This is just great. Reminds me of an old joke about a little boy walking in on mommy bouncing up and down on daddy. When he asked what they were doing, she said she was bouncing on daddy's belly to make it go away.

Later on the little boy told mommy not to worry about trying to make daddy's belly go away, because after she leaves for work the neighbor lady comes over and blows it back up.

Awwww, how cute. I was taught from a very early age not to tell everything I know for this very reason. My kids were also taught this same principal. Fortunately, we all escaped any major embarrassing moments.
