My best friend and his wife had left their kids at her mom's house while they went somewhere, and they had told their little boy that they would bring him a surprise when they came back.
After a while he was getting tired of waiting on them and was asking his Mimi when they were coming back and he made the statement matter of factly that "What if the surprise is that they're not coming back?"
lol
Oh too funny!

A friend of mine has a new baby (4 months), and she let her little sister (age 10) watch him for a little while....her little sister came running into the room, and said, "Jennifer! The good news is, I cried too!" (Of course this made alarm bells go off) Jen, said, "WHAT happened?" Nervous reply, "I dropped Levi, ...but the good news is, I cried too."
(P.S. Levi was fine.)

I was babysitting and was in the kitchen getting some juice for the 3 yr old. He came in the kitchen and had markers stuck together like a sword. Without missing a beat he looked at me and said, "I not write on the wall" and I said you didn't? He said no I not do it. So I told him to show me where he didn't write on the wall. He took my hand and about half way up the stairs he points to the wall. I see a group of little green dots. So I asked him if he didn't do it then who did. He looked at me and pointed and said, "You did"...

A friend of ours had borrowed some gardening tools and had stopped by to return them.
My daughter was about 4 years old and loved to talk. While sitting on the potty she was talking away and out of the blue said that 'Uncle' James had brought back the 'wearybable'.
All I could do was just give her the blankest look cuz I had absolutely no idea what in the world she meant.
So I started asking her questions and she said he had brought back the hoe, and the shovel, and the wearybable.
It finally dawned on me she was talking about the wheelbarrow!
We don't call them wheelbarrows anymore...they will forever be wearybables!

We were thinking about this the other day. Back when the tsunami took place, my son, who was about 5 years old and had a hard time hearing, was telling his uncle about it. He said, "Uncle, did you hear about that big salami that killed thousands of people?" I had to laugh despite the awful tragedy that happened.!!!

We have three sons and all of them have said some pretty funny things at different times. Our oldest (about 5 at the time) while on the way home from church one Sunday night asked "mommy, are we gonna have money in heaven?" To which my wife responded "I'm not sure why?" "Because we keep singing Won't we have a DIME when we get over yonder."
