To find kid's innocence incredibly cute?

[genuineidiot]

A family friend told me this story the other day:

Her and her family were looking after 2 young kids (7 and 9). This friend I am referring to is just 14 years old.

She told me that they were sitting at the dinner table and the 7 year old suddenly came out with: "X, you're 14, that means you know everything right"?
Friend said: "No, I wish I did but no one does".
Kid said: "But my mummy knows everything. She told me that".

AIBU to find this incredibly cute? What is the cutest most innocent thing your DC has ever asked you?

Dgs aged 8 "Grandma what's a virgin?"
We were in a cafe with his 10 year old brother at the time so I tried to divert him and asked why he wanted to know.
Dgs: "Because mummy says (brother) is one"
Brother: " Noooo she said I'm a Virgo because of when my birthday is!"
Short pause
"But Grandma what is a virgin?"

These are super cute!
I have loads with having 3 dds and numerous dn's

My favourite has to be when we were at a family race day. We were taking about putting a pound on a horse for the kids race, when dd2 piped up 'but how do they keep the pound from falling off' Such a literal thinker!

I think the literal thinking is the cutest thing ever!

When my Ds was 4 he came running over to me at the park shouting "help mummy, I've got chipmunk in my shoe!" It was a piece of woodchip 😂! I didn't correct him and he still calls it that now at 5 and 1/2.

Wants - the image I got when I read "chipmunk in my shoe!"

My daughter (2) was in the garden looking up at the sky. I went out to see what she was doing and I found her huffing and puffing and blowing as hard as she could. I asked her why and she told me she was "blowing the clouds away". She also shouts "clouds go away! Go away clouds!" And she says her best friend is the moon.

Ds last year age 4....
Playing operation and when he touched the side making it buzz we'd say "go on I'll let you off with that one"
If we did the same ds would say "I'll let you on"
Last Christmas, my DF pinched some of ds' sweets and hid them in his hand. Kept swapping hands to show ds an empty hand..."Grandad!! You're taking me off!!!" Instead of "you're having me on"
He's started in reception this year and was telling his DF and I that he'd met the headmaster.
DP: "oh, how did you find him?" Meaning was he nice etc.
DS: "I didn't. He just walked into class!!"
Listening to his 2 friends chatting in the back of the car last week.
F1 (a bit of a live wire) was talking about how a bigger boy was trying to fight with him. "He's the strongest in the class and I took him out!"
F2 "where did you take him?"
Glad I wasn't driving, I wouldn't have been able to see for tears!

When DS was around 6 he came home from school in early December saying someone had told him Father Christmas wasn't real. I asked him what he thought. He said "well obviously he's real. He delivers the presents. If he didn't they'd just drop out of the sky" 😊

@Inmyownlittlecorner I work in a polling station, and at the last election had one little kid in tears and a bit of a huff, who thought she and her mum were going “boating”. It was so cute!

I lived in a country which was holding its first multi-party election amid a little bit of unrest. One of the local children came round to my friend's house saying that their mother was afraid to cook and eat... mishearing for "go and vote", as the child had never heard the word "vote" before, in their language.
So not just English!

GD 2 had her fingers up her nose, when she took them out she said to her mother, "mummy, it's me."

Great disguise. 😊

Taking my dd to school one morning and She saw a X sign in the sky (Aeroplane trails) and She look mummy God is giving everyone a kiss.

My mum was a teaching assistant and this little boy asked her how old she was.

My mum said. "I'm 16" Well this look of pure horror came over his face, and his reply was. "Are you nearly at the end of the numbers.

When my mum used to take me on the bus to my DGPs. I used to wonder why the destination on the front didn't say. " Spiders nans.

I'm sure I remember a little kid (said little kid might have been me) asking someone if they were at the end of the numbers and if anyone had ever lived so long as to get to the end of the numbers😂😂😂

In the summer I got DD(10) and DS(7) to flip me the bird so I could send a photo to DS(16) Both obliged willingly.
Then little DS said "...have you considered you might be a bad mother?"

DS (3) asking where he came from. I replied from my tummy. He thought for a minute and said I want to go back in. He lifted up my top and put his head up it and as much of his body as he could fit! Bless him

I thought DS was too old for these moments now, being a terribly grown up 7 yrs old, but he surprised me last night with one :)

We were talking about someone hurting their leg, and how our bodies did all sorts of great things to help itself, like our blood building a 'little wall' (clotting!), to stop letting blood out of the cut, and to stop baddie germs from getting in...

DS turned it into a game where he was being his brain, ordering his body to rush around doing stuff, like 'quick everyone, red blood cells run run run to the leg quick!' Etc.

He's obviously got quite hot the idea of how our bodies make things like blood cells, so I heard him urging his blood cells to 'try as hard as you can to Be Pregnant! Go on, concentrate, Be Pregnant now!'

@WellThisIsShit that's hilarious😂 awwwwww!

I remember when my eldest DD was about 5. She’d come
Into the living room acting all poorly and said “mummy my temperature hurts”

Will
Never forget it!

I have two from my childhood that still stand out for me, I had a phobia of the dentist, my Mum promised to buy me a balloon if I would go and let the dentist check my teeth. Afterwards my Mum had to use the bathroom so I went with her. I remember repeatedly saying 'Mummy, I want the balloons from that machine!', my Mum said no, but that we could pick a prettier balloon in the shop. I started crying saying 'you promised me a balloon, why can't I have that one it has strawberry on it!'. My mortified Mum couldn't get out of the bathroom fast enough!

I remember age five being very excited as my Mum and Dad were taking me to the theatre. I remember thinking it was strange that we got our own beds and that I and the other children had to wear pyjamas/ nightgowns. When they came with medicine to make me 'Sleepy', I finally caught on that I wasn't going to see a show at the theater! I was devastated! And very angry with my parents who never corrected my wrong assumptions.
