When my twin nieces were about 5 they visited their other aunt at the hospital where she worked. The emergency room was undergoing renovations and it was all torn up. Allie looked around, put one hand on her hip and asked "Who made this mess?"

When my daughter Meghan was about 8, she wanted to go to a friend's house. I had a few chores for her to do before she could go. Apparently she thought the list was excessive because she went up to her room, fixed a little apron and made a name tag that said "Meg-arella".

my great nephew Jackson (2) was settling down to read with mama before bed. Suddenly boom boom it was a big thunder storm. Something fall down..mama check.. no mama said that is the thunder in the sky. Lets check, they went to the window and watched for a bit, then mama said lets read some more and listen for the thunder again. A few minutes later there hadn't been a sound. Mama, jackson said, the dunder flew away. soooooo cute.

At least you didn't scar your children like my Mom did. She told me a similar story.
My oldest brother was delivered by the stork
My second oldest brother was found in a cabbage patch
and I was found under a rock...and I'm lucky she found me when she did or I'd be a pile of goo by now.
I was so scarred!!! (we laugh hysterically about it now!)

Well; just need to add one more funny. We live on a dairy farm with multiple cats and kittens. Our daughter had a friend over from town and they were conversing about whether the kitten they were playing with was boy or girl. My daughter piped up and said lets take it to my Dad he can tell by holding it up and looking at the bottoms of their feet !!

Love all the cute stories.

I grounded my son today from all of the "electronic" games in the house (our kitten was sleeping on my lap and he decided to get revenge for her scratching him earlier. Snuck up and flicked her on the nose! Poor thing is only 8 or 9 weeks old so for being mean he got grounded.) We went and got lunch for us and my mom. Went to her house to eat it. I let her know he was grounded, a little bit passes and he asks her "Meemaw, can I play the wii?" She said "no, your grounded remember." He says "Just make my mom go home I won't tell her!" If that wasn't bad enough when she still said no he went to take a breath and before he could speak I piped in and said "Your not going to your NanNan's or Grandma Jodie's either." To which we got " Aw Man, someone around here needs to let me play some games."

I am loving this. Keep them comming.

I remembered as I was reading that when DD was about 6 or so we told her that she was a troll and we found her under a bridge. She had a green jewel in her navel and when she was old enough we would give it to her. Well when she turned 18 I found a little mint box that had a jewel in the top. i wrapped it up and took it to her. At the time she had a team at the Special Olympics. We were in her room with her asst coach and a few other friends and I handed her the box and said, "Before you open this honey I want you to know we could not love you more if you were our own child." At which point her assistant coach almost droped his eyes right out of his head. She just said, "Oh brother. Here we go" When she opened the box and saw the jewel was pink she said, "I thought the jewel was green." So I told her "We didn't know that when the jewel thought you were ready to receive it then it turns to your favorite color." We still call her a troll sometimes. LOL

Don't know whose kid she was, but one time in a crowded mall rest room, a cute 5 year old stood with her mother, looking around at all the messy paper on the floor. She put her hands on where her hips would one day be, sighed, shook her head sadly and said "They just don't make bathrooms like they used to."

Everyone laughed and left in a much better mood after that little darling came up with that.

I was at work and my son ran to Grandma's house in tears.
"Grandma, Grandma. I got bit by a bee!"
"Where did the bee bite you?"
"On 2nd base."
