Will, age 7
On the way home from a campus day after waiting for his turn on the swing: "When girls say, 'Wait a minute,' they really mean, 'Wait a long time!'"
How do you spell 'C', as in the letter C?
Nathan, age 4
When asked where his cup is (or any other object for that matter), he throws up his hands with, "'Round here somewhere!" I had no idea where he got that from until I heard myself say that! LOL!
And if it's not 'round here somewhere, it's "in my shop!" (Yes, Daddy has a shop.)
He brought me a broken tractor asking me to fix it. I showed him where a few pieces had come off that were missing and told him it couldn't be fixed. He told me to "buy some more pieces". I asked him where I would get more pieces and he said, "The pieces store!" Jeff and I both think he was talking about a local merchandise store that does in fact have a lot of pieces ( nuts, bolts, screws, light bulbs, switches, etc... by the bucket load!)
Witt, age 2 1/2
The immediate response when told he needed a haircut? NO WAY! (Jeff about spit his coffee out of his nose! LOL!)

LOL.
It's funny that we don't realize the things we say until we hear our kids repeating them.
Your boys are adorable :)
Sounds like Will has already gained some wisdom about dealing with girls...it takes a lot of patience to wait on our "minutes." :)
I remember hearing our kids say a word and wondered where they had heard it. My husband told me I said it all the time {had no idea I did}. Isn't it funny what you don't hear yourself say? :)
Crazy the little phrases they hear us say!! I'm always humbled when I hear them saying a phrase I say... 1st b/c they are listening, 2nd b/c I always need to keep MY words in check.
I saw in your profile you are a food allergy mom... and you have some testing coming up soon!! Hope and pray all goes well... we also have food allergies and homeschool:)
Oh my! The understanding of woman at such a young age.
Loved these.
Hope all is going well this year!
I did NOT need that song in my head again for days, thank you very much! ;-) Our kids have watched the daylights out of that movie!
And I wish there WAS a pieces store, cuz the stuff around here seems to be JUST pieces!
