The Boy Says

November 22, 2011 by Michele

 

♥ “Mommy, I forgot to eat my three Halloween treats today. But that’s okay, I’ll have six tomorrow.”
Is that the deal?
♥ “Mommy, on the first day of December you have to remember to hang up that number thing with a treat for every day until Christmas. If you want, you can borrow my Halloween candies to fill it up, okay?”
That’s actually a good idea.

 

 

♥ “Mommy, maybe by the time I’m 18 years old, paleontologists will have discovered why Argentinosaurus had a so small head.”
One can only hope.

♥ [In reference to one of my egg carton people] “Mommy, that one looks like an ant-eater.” [Followed by peels of laughter.]
Does it? Really?♥ [In reference to the great family movie: “Akeelah and the Bee“] 
The Boy:  “Mommy, they used the F-word in that movie.” 
Me:  “No they didn’t!” 
The Boy:  “Yes, they did. They said freak.”

Oh. Right… I guess they did use the F-word…

    I have 2 boys and unluckily they know very well the f-word….sigh!!! About your egg cartoon people : You know what? Someway they remind me the little people from Fisher Price toys when I was a little girl (born in 1967…)! Funny,eh?
    Love, xx Alessandra

    Too funny! Loved reading this. I have a blog that I write down all the little funny things my son says. For some reason it's easier than writing it in a book… 🙂 These are wonderful boy thoughts!

    I love hearing the funny things kids say. Did your creation really look like an ant eater? 🙂

    Leah: I couldn't see it… Still, it was pretty funny to hear him say that, and then laugh his head off! Too cute!
