When my daughter was about 3 or so, we were in line at a fast food restaurant. She was not patiently waiting, as most three year olds are fairly energetic, lol. After a few times of me asking her to kindly not swing/pull/jump/talk too loudly, I got my mom-voice on and asked her if she needed to go to the car. She turned to me quite sternly and belted out the phrase " No, Mom! I don't know how to drive!!!"
Nearly every one around us starts to giggle. It was very hard to keep a straight face3 -
My two year old son has taken to chasing our maltipoo around the house yelling "here you go! here you go! here you go!" and shoving an empty dog food bowl at her lol. My poor dog.4

We were young. Very young and inexperienced. We had a favorite classy restaurant in downtown Minneapolis we would go to when feeling extravagant, but we hadn't been there since our first baby was born. We decided it was time.
They had a hard time finding a highchair for our baby girl. We should have gotten the hint! But they brought one, and brought her some packages of saltines, and we all enjoyed our meals.
Were we ever embarrassed when we got up to leave and found a perfect circle of cracker crumbs on the deep red carpet around the high chair. We didn't go back for a long, long time.1 -
I find pieces of paper all the time, with weird and random things written on them. My 7 year old waking daughter has a very active imagination (I think it's normal, but other parents marvel at her storytelling). The most recent one was a large sheet of paper, I found it on my son's shelf, I think the babysitter found it in his room from my daughter and just put it there. In big letters in the middle she wrote "You're banana fired". And below it in smaller letters she wrote "I'm coming for you". I asked her what it meant and she goes "you know, you're fired from bananas. You're not allowed to eat bananas anymore" so funny, but what's with the I'm coming for you? She goes "I dunno, I guess if you're banana fired you've done something pretty bad. And they'll GET you." hahaha I roared. I didn't ask who "they" are, lol.4

When my youngest son was 4, he was a very bad wall drawer to our constant irritation. Punishments, reasoning, special paper, dedicated art space, etc had no effect. Crayon, pen, pencil, marker...he didn't care what he used, if it made a mark it was fair game to ANY wall.
We were moving (luckily my MIL owned the house) and repainted all of the walls a few weeks prior to the move, to cover his masterpieces. We stressed to him with reinforcement, the need to keep the walls clean and clear for our nephew who was moving in after us. He completely agreed...to our face.
Low and behold the day we moved our dining table, what do we see??? From floor to the bottom of the table, every imaginable color in the rainbow! Leg to leg drawings of his very active imagination. Still have no clue when he found the time. I was a stay at home Mom who was very active with my boys when they were home from school. It had to be when we were asleep or in the shower!
Every other wall in the house was clean and clear but that area under the table sure made up for it. Had to repaint the entire wall again!!6 -
We told our little boy he was going to be a pageboy at our wedding and Wear a suit, his response was 'does that mean everyone can draw on me' hahaha I thought it was so funny :-P
