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?

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" !!!

Its very big" Eeker Red Face

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