Things your children say that make you smile

I know, it's bloody hard work most of the time but sometimes you can't help laughing:

DD1 to MIL "Nanny, why have you got a hairy lip?"

DD1 (4yo) "I don't like sheepdogs"

DH: "Why not darling?"

DD1 "Well I get confused - are they sheep or are they dogs?"

DD (2.5 at the time)regarding dh in the garden with the garden sprinkler.
"Why is daddy washing the sky?!

UniversallyChallenged · 21/05/2008 22:58

daisycat - love the way you had to tell us "I dont" in case we thought otherwise

tiredemma · 21/05/2008 23:02

Ds2- obsessed with hair- thinks he is a girl-
"mommy I like your hair now it is grown long"
Me- "do you?"
Ds2 " Yes, you dont look like a man anymore"

He also says
"I love you mommy"
Me- "how much?"
Ds2 "Too much"

ds1 told Dp that his willy stuck up when the Pussycat Dolls came on Tv.

MarsLady · 21/05/2008 23:03

DS1 says "Yes yes" in a perfect take off of his English teacher.

It always makes me smile!

DS says (in the voice of PC Plod from noddy) 'Stop in the name of the lord'

He always gets the lord / law confused.

These are so funny. I just remembered one from the first time DS (a big Fireman Sam fan from an early age)went on a plane and could speak - he was sat on DH's lap looking out of the window and as we took off and flew through some wisps of cloud he started shouting "UH OH, UH OH - FIRE, FIRE!" at the top of his voice - lucky nervous flyers sat near us eh!

mumoftwo37 · 21/05/2008 23:18

My DS2 (then 4) left the front door open as he went out with DH
Me: were you born in a barn?
DS2 : I can't remember but you should know you were there!

DS2 put his shoes on the wrong feet
Me: You've got them on the wrong feet.
DS2: But they're the only feet I have got!

DS1 was 2 and 10 days whne DS2 was born. He came to the hospital and climbed on the bed to look in the cot! He turned to me and said " I love you Mummy, thank you for my Oliver! He is gorgeous."
Then whenever any one walked past he would say "Have you seen my Oliver? He is gorgeous!"

DS1 is 13 now and no matter where he is he always says "I love you Mum" at them end of every phone call.

dd2 was shouting 'Shoo!' at some ants on the slide.

dd1 (in shocked tones): 'How could you do that? You've made the ants really sad and upset. Don't you know they can't fly away, because they don't have wings? Look at that poor ant; he's really sad now.'

melpomene · 21/05/2008 23:22

Also, dd2 entered our bedroom at 5.30am one morning, explaining that she was cold and had to come into our bed because a unicorn had eaten her duvet.

We have new names for body parts, made up by dd4 when she was about 3, for example, the inside of your elbow is your elbowl, you have an armbowl, not armpit, a kneebowl (at the back) and even an earbowl.

dd1 is a vegetarian, and whenever dd4 refers to when she's going to be 12, she says "Mummy, when I'm a vegetarian like dd1, will I have brown hair/be tall/go to high school etc"!

rachaelsara · 21/05/2008 23:27

Ours all wear a school unicorn!

SmugColditz · 21/05/2008 23:29

On visiting a (very clean) friend

"Oh, I love your toilet, it is beautiful, and I love the handle of your toilet, and your bath is very shiny!"

SmugColditz · 21/05/2008 23:34

Oh and

"Can we go to America? Where is America? Do they have a flag? can we go and a jet? On a boat? On the train? On your motorbike? do they speak Spanish? Is America in Spanish? What happens in America? can I go there when I am 6? What about when I am 10? What about when I am 34 like daddy?"

34 is the Age Of Manhood as far as ds1 is concerned, and 10 is The Age Of Big Boy.

ds1 proudly announcing he can write really well, wrote "I luv yoo Jonafun" to his baby brother and that everyone dies at 100 unless you're stupid (not sure where the idea of stupidity comes from!)
