When my son was in elementary school he got in trouble by his teacher and was sent home with a note.

I sat him on his bed and talked to him for a good hour about what he did wrong and that he needed to go apologize to his teacher the next day.

When our conversation ended I said "Ok now what are your going to do tomorrow morning when you see your teacher (hoping he would say apologize)" Instead he said he was going to "Kick her butt"

My daughter once told a waitress (when asked what I wanted to drink) that I only drink at night. We had a good laugh over that one since the waitress probably thought I was a drunk. I do most of my drinking at night because the kids are always snatching my juice and tea during the day LOL.

My girlfriend and I both had our babies within weeks of each other, so they have always been close. When they were about 3-4 they had both gone through that inquisitive period and the body parts of boys and girls. One day, they were playing in the living room while we were drinking coffee in the kitchen when we overheard her son tell my son that he when he grows up he is going to marry a woman with a lasagna. My son, always motivated by food, agreed that he too wanted to marry a woman with a lasagna. Needless to say, my friend and I almost choked on coffee and still laugh about that today.

I wrote this down when it happened right before Christmas so that I would never forget it... (TRUE STORY)

My son came home from school all excited because Santa had come to his classroom and he got to tell Santa what he wanted for Christmas. He was very excited because he told me that we "might get a new brother."

I asked him what he meant and he told me he asked Santa for an "elf" for Christmas. I asked, "Why do you want an elf for Christmas?"

My son replied, "Because an elf would help do the laundry and stuff..."

I asked, "Do we need an elf to help do the laundry?"

"Well, he will also play with Carson," my son responded, referring to his baby brother.

"Really? Don't you like playing with Carson?" I asked, wondering now about the motive behind this request for Santa.

My little guy rolled his eyes at me, which is quite cute coming from a 5-year-old, and stated quite matter-of-factly, "Yes, but an elf is tiny and Carson will have fun playing with him."

Well, of course, I thought to myself. This is just what we need in our house! "I am not sure Santa is going to bring you an elf for Christmas, Buddy. I wouldn't even know what to feed him..."

"Brussel sprouts," The told me, without hesitation. Why do kids know this stuff? Did I once know what elves ate and lost that knowledge somewhere through the years (those years seem to be rapidly building by the way, but that is another story...)

The funniest thing I ever heard a toddler say is: My daughter went to the bathroom with my husband.

My son's first hair cut was quite traumatic. It took lots of soothing and bribing to get through it. He was scared of the clippers, the barber, and the idea of something being cut from his body. On our second attempt to get his haircut, he informed us, as we were about to walk into the barber that his hair "Wasn't weady yet, daddy. Wet's twy tomorrow."
