Lick it off
Mum: I thought I told you to wipe your mouth ? You have toothpaste on your lips.
4yo: Can you lick it off ?
On Calling From The Car
Four year old: Daddy, can we call someone with your Loosetooth Phone?
A dad’s comfort
My 5 year old daughter: “Mom is the best, but you’re better than nothing!”
Logic
Me: put on you gloves, so your hands won’t get cold
3yo: Where are your gloves, dad
Me: In my pocket
3yo: Oh, then your pocket won’t get cold
In the car
Travelling back from Cornwall with a bit of Neil Diamond playing. Sound goes down but 4 yo keeps singing…Sweet cow of mine, bom,bom,bom
which news do you want to hear first?
Me: how was your day?
4yo: I’ve got some good news, some bad news, and some middle-sized news
K - I - S - S - I - N - G
7yo: Charlie and Reuben (girl, friend from nursery) sitting in a tree. K - I - S - S - I - N - G.
you try …
4yo: Matthew and Ryan (his cousin they are very close friends) sitting in a tree. Oh NO! The tree’s going to fall over.
Oh, WoW!
After realizing I’m losing my programming edge, due to casual playing of World of Warcraft, I closed my WoW account. My 5yo daughter’s response: “NO, daddy! They’ll DIE in there! Hey have to eat! What if a dragon eats them, or they could get ganked by Alliance!?” Okay, so maybe I played a wee bit more than I realized… :/
Hungry!
My son, to my wife who is in her third trimester of pregnancy:
Son: “Mommy, if you weren’t so hungry you could stop eating and help me look for the Lego piece that I’m missing.”
Wife: “Um… yeah, I can’t argue with that.” <back to eating>
