“what happened to my face!?”
August 16, 2009
"daddy, what happened to my face?"
That is what Eli said when we put the hood up on his new hoodie in San Francisco. I never thought I would be a person that would tell stories about my child. I enjoy hearing about other people’s kids, but who knew the things our child says could be so funny. It’s kind of crazy to see what is going on in our kids minds. Here is a short list of things Eli has said that for some reason cracked me up!
Eli pointing at light brown silky bantam chickens at the Littleton Historical Museum: “Spicy Chicken!”
In reference to grapes: “I want more grape-berries mommy”.
Our friend’s kids like to play with him: “I’m a popular little boy, that’s right!”
Eli on the potty with loose stool: “Worms! Worm poopy!”
He will hate me one day for posting these and I understand, but what he says are too funny and cute and Lord willing if he ever becomes a father, he will understand.
Update 10.12.2009: Here are a couple more funnies -
When his daddy pulled the back of his pants: “Daddy, don’t pull my tail!”
In reference of driving through fog: “I don’t want to get clouds in my eyes”.
I think part of the job as parent is to tell stories about our kids – especially in front of their high school friends or at their weddings
I searched to read humorous kid stories since that is the preface of my blog and found yours – spicy chicken made me laugh out loud!!
Hi Bones and Heart,
I saw your blog and since you guys are about kids and music, you might enjoy this post too: http://mainstreambob.wordpress.com/2009/06/23/elis-playlist/
Tom asked our (then) five-year old boy “How do you say ‘chicken’ in Spanish?” To which Curran replied “bok bok!” *Much like the big red chicken on Dora.
I’ll have to tell you what he said as a three-year-old about Tom’s mom’s neck sometime… WAY to private to post!
