The awesomest thing your kid has ever said...

Being the type of father I am, you know, all up in his business..because, my house, my rules, and until you move out there is no such thing as privacy...I had it set up for me to monitor his texts to make sure things weren't going on that were too out of hand at his ripe old age of 16. He's 19 now.

I was skimming through the usual texts of LOL, IDK...basically the slew of poor grammar and lacking the ability to type out a whole sentence when I ran across the him texting with one of his several girl interests and they were doing the whole "getting to know you" by asking and answering questions. She asked him who his hero was, his answer, "My dad. Honestly...it has to be my dad."

Just recently my son told a friend of mine, " My dad is the handiest guy I know, he does laundry and bar tends"
That's my boy!
Side note, I am not a bar tender by trade, just around the house.

Three Years Old:
I'm in my room naked picking out my work clothes... he points at the boobs, "Put those things away and come help me find Spiderman."

Six Years Old, This Morning:
"For the love of gravy, mom! Go brush your teeth!"

BAH BAH BAH BAH
..... pretty cool for 8 months.

That soooo CUTE

Mommy you are the most awesomest mommy ever.....This from my son(7)

I call french fries chips now...If you watch enough Doctor who you starting calling fries chips--from my daughter(9)........

So, when my son was 4 and it was Christmas day at my parents house. My whole family was there. My younger brother, who had been collecting Fisher Price Pirate Ship and figures for him, instead of keeping in original packing, found the biggest box he could, which happened to be the box from a huge child car seat to put it all in, that of course, was as big as my son. Wrapped it. Put it "under" the tree. My son went to open it, knowing it was his AND the biggest box in the room, and was incredibly excited. He ripped into it with a huge grin, paper flying in all different directions, until he finally got it all off and still excited, proudly exclaims from behind the box, jumping up and down, "I got a car seat!" Didn't matter really what was in that box, as long as it was his box! Had us all laughing so hard... for a long time. :laugh:

One morning I'm at the table enjoying my coffee and my boys are watching Saturday morning cartoons. Justice League is on. My older son (7 at the time) sits down beside me at the table puts his hand on mine and says, "Dad I know Superman isn't real, but to me you are Superman."

My newly minted 3 year old daughter on our walk the other day, with her and her little sister in the double stroller:

Me: Here comes the big bump!

Her: Hold on to your diapers, kids!

Coming into my room, putting her hand delicately on my cheek, leaning in close and saying: Good Morning, my Sunshine.

The other day I got up before her and she usually gets to come into my room and snuggle with me before we get up for the day. She sees me dressed for work and starts bawling:

I hate your clothes.. they are ugly.... get back into your nightgown.

I was looking in the mirror and said oh I need to workout and she looks at me and says
"mom you are perfect just the way you are and you are beautiful"
O hugged her so tight she is so sweet!

My 4 year old is on vacation with her grandparents out West. She called me and said "hi mama. I'm waiting for Old Faithful to erupt but I wanted to tell you that my butt itches."

So cute.

my 5 year old son.

Me: R, tell me more about these scary things. Who scared you?
R: this girl.
Me: what did she do?
R: she showed me lots of scary stuff like nightmares and Justin Bieber.

couple that make me laugh;

my niece trying to tell her step Dad that he was "hen pecked" but got it mixed up and said "chicken picked"

my youngest, now 6, calling things "epic" and also dancing smacking his butt singing "I'm sexy and I know it"

my oldest, when he was about 5, calling me his hero.

lovin this thread...LOL @ wrk. Wish I had a story to share.

This morning, my child said "Mom, did you clean my princess dress? I'm so proud of you."

When my youngest daughter was 4 she wanted a horse, so my husbandexplained to her that she should go to college, get a job, buy a house with enough land, blah, blah,blah.. She looked at him and said "No. I think I'll just marry a boy who already has a horse." We still laugh about it, mostly because she may follow through...

Oldest daughter: "Mom, of I eat 2 bites of macaroni and cheese can I please have some more asparagus." Husband & I had a really hard time not spitting our food across the table. I don't want her to know how odd that is.
