What are some of the things you have heard from the mouths of babes?
My daughter is two and recently saw a picture of an Angel. She didn't know what it was, just that it had wings, so she informed me that it was a butterfly!
When my daughter was about three her Mom said to her "your growing like weed". Her reply was "why do I have to be a weed, no one likes weeds, why can't I be a flower". So now we say your growing like a flower.
My six year old is intuitive and says the darnest things esp after my divorce.
Once while we were driving she looked up into the sky and said, "If people could only see the clouds as other contintnents they would believe in magic."
My immediate reaction was shock. What the heck?
Whenever my husband would walk out of the room and return, my 2 year old would say "welcome back Daddy. It's so nice to see you" or when she has an accident in her pull up she would say "mommy, my butt's sagging."
