LOL Aimee I love the things kids say.

I asked my grandaughter last week [age 4] what she wanted for her birthday and she replied "a bike". Her old one is too small now and the saddle cannot be raised any higher.

She couldn't think for a moment how to explain and then she said "I need one because my old one has run out of highness"!!!!

Kids eh?

that is brilliant.

My boy was sanding in the garden shouting at the flowers he had just planted, they looked a bit sorry for themselves and he's yelling at the top of his voice "come on you bunch of pansies don't just lie, there stand up for yourselves", could have died, got a really lovely gay couple living next door who were watching him over the fence in a slightly bemused fashion!!

The classic for me was my neighbour's grandaughter. She was about 7 and her mum was in the bath. The phone rang and the convo went something like this:

"Hello, is your Daddy at home"

"No, he is out"

"Can you give him a message"

"Yes"

"Have you got a pen"

"Yes"

Then the child put the phone down

When her Dad came home she said to him "Daddy a man rang with a message"

"What did he say"

"He just wanted to know if you had a pen" !!!

That one's great!

seriously i worry about the girl she's started going into town shopping with her mates, me being the protective mother, i did the don't talk to strangers, don't go to the loo on your own, watch your purse etc speech, didn't think of doing the what bus to catch home speech, the bus passes our house and we've lived here 11 yrs

she had to ask someone at the bus stop, which was the right bus to catch home and THEN got off at the wrong stop, IT PASSES OUR HOUSE

I asked my daughter "What did you do in school today?"...she looked really happy and said "ass...emmmm...belly" smiling, she said they had a story, I asked who told it and she said.. "The Head Mischief" .....to this day I think she was at the wrong school!

I was on the bus with my 4 year old twins who are learning about when they were babies at nursery and are facinated (sp?) about being in mummys tummy at the same time - anyway a rather large lady got onto the bus and my little girl decideds to say (in the loudest voice she has EVER used) "Mummy does that lady have twins in her belly too? Its very big"

In all fairness, adults put their foot in it more openly by asking 'when is it due?'.
