I am in second grade and we had a project to write about "what our family members love to do the most?" I was very excited so I wrote;
On the night of our school's open house people were looking very strangely at my Mommy. When my parents read my Family Activity List they started laughing and they gave me a big hug. I didn't thing it was that great. Then my Mommy picked me up and sat me on her lap and with a big smile said: "Honey, mommy doesn't bog her friends, it is called BLOGGING. I write a blog so my friends can read them and when they write a blog I tell them how I feel about what they have written." I am so glad my Mommy explained this to me because I was starting to thing my Mommy was becoming a Bully!!!

Around our house Mommy has a new habit. For some time now it seems wherever she goes so does her laptop. Sometimes she even starts laughing at her laptop and calls Daddy to tell him a story.

I love to listen to children. They are so honest in what they say. And I love their wonderment about us...the adults in their lives. This was so cute, give her a hug for me. :) Great post.
Too cute.

Mana,
Very funny stuff indeed. Let's hear it for the boggers and for all those little boggers that will be joining us soon whether they know it now or not.
Reminded me of a picture book my hubby drew when he was in first grade. He drew daddy at an office working at a desk, he drew his sisters at school and working (he's the youngest) and he drew mommy in a short skirt and high heels standing at the stove smiling with a frying pan billowing black smoke and the caption said "Mommy helps the family, she cooks".
I thought he was just a funny kid until I tasted his mom's cooking. He wasn't being humorous he was being truthful!
Thanks for sharing.

Hilarious! The chance that a child may misperceive the meaning of a word or phrase is never lost on me. A few years ago I was in the car with my children and I mentioned to my oldest son that I thought one driver up ahead appeared to be drinking and driving. My youngest piped up from the backseat and said, "I don't know why you always make such a big deal about it. You always do it and they never take you to jail."
My oldest son and I looked at each other quizzically for several seconds before simultaneously figuring it out. My little guy had absolutely no idea what "drinking and driving" meant. Every time I got into the car with my daily Venti Latte, my little guy thought I was two steps away from being carted off to jail.
It's amazing what our kids think of us. I'm not sure whether I'd rather be a drunk driver or a bully.
There's a cure for that...
And I wonder why my daughter doesn't leave her kids for me to watch? LOL!!
Mana - Really cute story...
Ebony...LOL... that's great. I wouldn't have been able to help myself from laughing. So do you have good news?
It amazes me how they pick up on things! One of my 2yr old twins got his laptop out yesterday, sat next to me, and said "Jaxie is working, don't touch my computer!" then moved to other end of the sofa.
Hey - at least he understands!!!
Mana,
Thanks for asking! The newsis GREAT!!! WE ARE NOT PREGNANT!! CHILDREN ARE A BLESSING BUT WE HAVE 4 UNDER 6....NO MORE !!!:)
Too cute! I'm glad Al Gore hadn't invented the internet before he did...my kids would of never got any attention! My husband is the only one who doesn't get attention now!!!
My three year old daughter spends a lot of time in the car with me. One day we were out and about a car came from behind me cut me off and then hit his breaks. Needless to say this did not make me happy and I honked my horn and said under my breath "dumb ass driver"
A few days later my husband was trying to get my daughter into the car and my neighbor was at the mailbox down the street and accidently hit his horn while he was looking at his mail. All of a sudden my daughter yelled "dumb ass driver" my husband and I both looked at each other and then he said "honey that is not nice why did you say that " her response "I heard the horn and that is what mommy always says when she honks the horn".
Opps -- I guess my comments were not as under my breath as I thought!
Kelly your story reminded me of a story when my oldest daughter was younger. Me and her would fake fight and she would put of her dukes and I would always say. Better watch out I'm gonna kick your ass. Well, my daughter decided to say this to mommy while at church when she wasn't getting her way.
Boy was I in trouble when the wife got home!
But I think I have come up with a solution for that though! Very similar to Vicki's picture.
YES - Mana I did!
That is my 3 year old in the picture. She was 2 at the time and demanded I tie her up like I did her older brother and sister. You can see she hated it - lol
