Funny quotes from my kids:

T says "So mom...How do the babies get into the mommy's tummy? Is there a door and the belly button is the handle?" I'm sure he knew that wasn't the truth...if not I really need to talk to that boy!

 A said that she was not going to go to a restaurant when she was going to have a baby. I asked her why. She pulls me close and whispers in my ear "Because the baby might fall out while I was at the restaurant and I would be embarrassed!"  (8/11, 5 yrs)

H asked Bob why he was taking a class.  He tells her that it's so he can maybe get a better job.  She says "You mean, like in a circus?"  (8/11, 3 yrs)

T says " Your heart isn't really shaped like a heart. It looks more like a giant booger". After I got done laughing, I had to agree with him!  (8/11,7yrs)

H asked me tonight what was for dinner. I told her that it was a "whatever you can find" night; leftovers, pb&j, etc. She screws up her face, and will all sincerity say "I can't find vegetables."  (8/11, 3 yrs)

I was emptying the dishwasher this morning and came across a Wii game. Hmmm. Not even having to think about who did it, I say "A, did you put a Wii game in the dishwasher?" "Yes, mom" "Why?" I ask. Her answer.........."Because I couldn't find the case and I wanted to keep it safe."  (8/11, 5 yrs)

A conversation with B: "I bet Daddy can lift a semi truck tire. He can lift you, and you are really heavy so he must be able to." I guess I need to go back on my diet!!  (5/11, 8 yrs)

I ask T how to spell we. He thinks for a minute then I see his face brighten up and he just knows he has the right answer: W-i-i I think I might have to re-evaluate the time we spend on video games!  (6/10, 6 yrs)
