Funny things heard in my house:


Recommended Posts

Said over the phone: "Matt, I know you can't see it, but I'm using my girly jedi powers on you, convince mom to let me stay home from school"

"Baby, your magical portal is glowing again, turn it off" She plays skylanders.

"Why do they call it clam chowder if its made with chicken?"

(not meant to be offensive, her dad is Jewish by descent and I am a Christian, we are divorced. He doesn't practice.) My youngest, she is twelve: "I think when I grow up I'm gonna be a Jew" I say "If you want to hun, that is awesome, let me know we will find someone who can tell you more about it" my oldest daughter says "You know Jews don't believe in Jesus Christ" the youngest replies with "Well screw that then!!!" Eventually I did stop laughing long enough to explain more...

"Will you two STOP steeling my spinach!! Make your own." Same goes for artichoke hearts and asparagus.

What is heard in yours?

Not so much inside the house but still said on the property 'I can totally clear that gap to the next bulding' (about 2m50)
Followed closely by: 'Oow Ow OW! Call an ambulance' 

We didn't, he was fine. But he didn't make the jump

"mooooooooom, the cat fell in the toilet again."

 

and it wasn't so much said as it was done: my dad nearly set our property on fire when we first moved on it.  O_o  had to call the fire department to control it.

There is never a sudden revelation, a complete and tidy explanation for why it happened, or why it ends, or why or who you are. You want one and I want one, but there isn't one. It comes in bits and pieces, and you stitch them together wherever they fit, and when you are done you hold yourself up, and still there are holes and you are a rag doll, invented, imperfect. And yet you are all that you have, so you must be enough. There is no other way.

Me: "Zero."

Son: "Wrong! It's CHICKEN RINGS!"

(That's my boy. Weird as snake shoes, but sweet as a stolen kiss.)

Strength isn’t just about winning. Even if my attempts are pathetic and comical, and even if I’m covered in the mud of my defeat, if I can keep fighting and look up at the sky as I lie on the ground, that alone is proof of true strength! Haruyuki Arita (Accel World)

We have some interesting rules at my house and so newcomers are frequently given the list upon their first visit. These rules include:

  • no dancing with knives
  • no interpretive dancing at the table
  • no drinking milkshakes on the roof
  • don't put your cat on the roof

The list is actually a lot longer, those are just all that come to mind right now- and yes every single one was prompted by an action by a child who was old enough to know better.

I love this thread so much.  :wub:

 

All of these are from Liz, my six-year-old.

 

"Mom, I can have a sparkly first day of school if I want to!"  (successfully convincing me that sequins, rhinestones, and leopard print are a perfectly fine first-day outfit)

 

"Mom, it's okay. It could be so much worse. It would be worse if you had to clean up barf and then you also spilled your coffee. So, see? This isn't so bad."

 

"If you're happy and you know it, go sit in a corner and think about your life."

 

"These video games aren't gonna play their selves!"

 

I'm sure I can find more...I haven't even gotten into her unauthorized entries on my shopping list.

"I'm not allowed to say bad words, except for "What the hell was that?" because Mom says that all the time."

 

:highly_amused:  LOLOL!!

 

One time when Liz was about three, we went to a Christmas party up in the mountains.  I was attempting to drive home, sliding all over the place, and I dropped a few f-bombs.  Liz piped up from the backseat, "Don't say fuck, Mom!  Be brave!  Be HAPPY!"

I overheard this exchange last night between my wife and my 6 year old son while I was starting dinner. He was playing store with my 2 year old daughter:

6YO: "Mom, she likes my store, and so should you. Here's why. It's clean, it's got anything you need, and it's run by me. What else could you want?'
Wife: "You to not make Bear clean your messes".

6YO: "But that's what I pay her for"

2YO: "MM's now"

He then proceeded to pay her with M&M's...

Eh, I had to dig some out of my old blogs just for nostalgia's sake.

 

Son (Age 5): "I want my underpants made out of candy, so I can eat them when I'm done."
Wife: "I don't think you want to eat anything that's touched your bum."
Son (Age 5): "Oh, that's a good idea.  Ok, normal underpants." 

 

Son (Age 5): When my fish die, I can get new fish? 

Me: Probably, yeah. 
Son (Age 5): When my dad dies, me and mom will get a new one. 
Me: Uhm... your dad? 
Son (Age 5): Yeah, you. When you die, we'll get a new one. 
Me: Oh.

The cancer was aggressive, but the chemotherapy was aggressive, as well.

There was aggression on both sides.

My oldest son randomly wanders the house saying "Balls" like when Dr Horrible says it in Dr Horrible's Sing Along Blog.

The daughter to one son (they were playing with Lego minis): "They should change hair, don't you think? 'Cause SHE looks more lumberjacky, and she looks more casual. There. That's better."

 

One of the boys: "Mom, how come my butt cheeks are tinier than my hands?"

 

The other boy (upon coming in from outside): "We've had too much outsideness."

 

Also, this is what I was met with when hands and cheeks boy above told me to come look at his tattoos:

If one were walking past my kitchen window last night, you would have heard this from the mouth of a 6 year old, "Mom, Dad's fighting with the doughnuts again.  Can you make him less weird?"  All I said to them (doughnuts) was you got nothing on me.

My sister shared this one with my from my nephews. At the time I believe they were 6 and 4. The younger is a button pusher - as in he tries to push peoples buttons to get a reaction from them. Just for the fun of it.

 

He was being a pain and his older brother looked to my sister and said "Mom, what did you have to buy him for anyway?" Proceeded to sigh loudly and follow that up with "I hope you got him on sale."
