Judge Robert's "fun" son!
Good morning everybody. Sometimes kids tell it better than adults.
Years ago, my niece, Maureen, was instructing her little boy, Joel, then 4,
how to do something, and he was frustrated.
"She gently told him, "Just try, Joel."
Probably looking something like this - - 
- -
he came up with a classic...
"But, Mommy - I CAN'T KNOW HOW TO TRY TO!!"
(we still find that useful it in certain situations..:)
One afternoon on my shady deck in North Carolina, we had our little grandson, Kyle, then about 10 months old, by us in his playpen.
Big sister, Aubrey, just 3, came out holding one of her favorite toys -
a radio-like pretend tv screen that when wound up,
had characters moving across the screen.
It had "died," obviously after Kyle had bashed it against something.
With a most serious face, remembering he had come from the hospital, she said to us:
"Can we take him back?"
I think we got the wrong baby!!!"
Still brings gales of laughter, remembering her expression and quiet disappointment -
and her thoughtful solution..:)
Hugs to you, sistah. Have a wonderful day.
They are all the time saying the darndest things, but nothing comes to mind at the moment. Bet if I asked their parents, they could come up with some real doozies. LOL.
Pretty in pink, blue, gold, etc. I love your table! It's a *happy* table. : )
I shouldn't tell this on myself, but here goes.....
When I was kid of about eight, a few buds and I played hooky one day. My 'written' excuse to the teacher was as follows:
Tony wasn't in class yesterday because he had romantic fever. He was at the doctor's for four hours. He's well today. Thank you. Tony's mother.
Miss Hahn, my teacher never questioned me about it and never told my mom. Like this thread, I suppose she had her own list of goofy things kids say. : )
And, yes, I did learn "rheumatic' is sooooo very different than 'romantic' fever.
