A mother and her young son returned from the grocery store and began putting away the groceries. The boy opened the box of animal crackers and spread them all over the table. “What are you doing?” his mother asked. “The box said not to eat them if the seal is broken” the boy explained. “I’m looking for the seal.”
A little girl asked her mother, "Can I go outside and play with the boys?" Her mother replied, "No, you can't play with the boys, they're too rough." The little girl thought about it for a few moments and asked, "If I can find a smooth one, can I play with him?"
It was the end of the day when a K-9 officer parked his police van in front of the station. While he was gathering his equipment, his K-9 partner started barking at a little boy staring into the van. "Is that a dog you got back there?" he asked the officer. "It sure is," the officer replied. Puzzled, the boy looked at him and then towards the dog. Finally the boy said, "What'd he do?"
The other day my daughter and I were listening to the radio as we were riding down the road. A song came on, that said "If you don't mind, it won't matter," my daughter said, "Oh yes it does matter! If you don't mind, you'll get in trouble!"
My 4-year-old son was up in a tree in our backyard one summer afternoon. He could see over the fence and onto the road that ran beside our home. After a few minutes, I heard the jingle of the ice cream truck making his rounds for the first time that summer. I braced myself for my son to come running in for some change, but what he came running in for sent me to the floor with laughter. "Mom, mom!" he screamed. "It's the sing-along mail guy!" It then occurred to me that he had no recollection of ever seeing an ice cream truck before, but he was very familiar with the comparable little white mail truck! –
When my daughter was having some "growing pains" in her legs and needed to take some Tylenol™. She had the bottle and was trying to get it open while I changed her baby sister's diaper. I saw her frustration and explained that it was a childproof cap and I would have to open it when I finished. Eyes wide with wonder, Brittany asked, "How does it know it's me?"
When I serve ice cream, I put it in the microwave for about 20 seconds to soften before scooping it out. My grandson, Alex, was visiting from Michigan. When I went to get him some ice cream, he saw me placing the carton in the microwave. He said, "Wait, Grandma, Wait!! In Michigan we eat our ice cream frozen!!"
My niece, Sara, called my parents in Alabama, who had no electricity because of a winter storm. The weather hadn't been bad at Sara's house, in Mississippi. The first thing she always asks my mom is, "Whatcha doin' Grandma?" Mama said, "Sitting here in the dark. What are you doing?" Sara answered, "Watching TV. Why aren't you watching TV?" My mom replied, "Because our lights are out." With logic only a 4-year-old has, Sara asked, "Do you have a flashlight? Just shine it on the TV; then you can see it."
As we were riding down the road one day, my 5-year-old said, "Mom, stop! Stop!" I asked her why. She said, "You passed that sign." I was wondering what she was talking about, so I asked her what the sign said. She replied, "It said, Do Not Pass!"
