i'm here to share some more of the things these crazy little kids i work with everyday SAY.
because some of the things they say truly do make me laugh.
i find myself running for a piece of paper and pen to jot down some of the crazy things that come out of their mouths so that i can go home remembering and tell my roomies.
so here are a few i have written down in the past couple weeks
.
talking with one little girl from Sue's about how she is sick, she tells me she is on medicine.
J: Wanna know what the medicine is called?
me: YUP! what's it called?
J: GRAPE! with extra pronunciation of the PPP.
how cute. her medicine is "called" grape.
gosh do i remember the disgusting grape flavored medicine i always had to take as a kid. especially the children's tylenol. you'd think the grape flavor would make it a bit tasty but i remember crying and begging not to have to eat those chalky grape flavored tylenol that literally made me gag. it was torture.

sometime last week i was babysitting another little boy from the Common School. It's time to brush his teeth and get ready for bed so we're in the bathroom. he drops the toothpaste cap on the floor and it lands behind the toilet. he says "it's webby back there." i say "spider webby?" and he says yes and points to another corner of the bathroom where it is also "webby." that other corner was near a sliding closet in the bathroom and he tells me that behind those doors are "the buttons that control the house." and then the best of all...the part that made me literally run out of the room laughing to grab a piece of paper and pen to write it down so i didn't forget. he says:
"and sometimes when i'm on the toilet pooping i talk to that door. and i pretend it's scary!"
and so when i return to the room laughing i tell him that he's so funny and explain what i'm doing with the paper and pen. and then i repeat what he told me saying something like "oh ya? you talk to that door and pretend it's scary?" and he says "YAaa. and i pretend i'm scary back."
tell me that doesn't make you laugh? i'd love to be there for one of those moments to see what it looks like.he kills me.

today, one little boy from Sue's asked me if i wanted to see a Magic Trick. his magic trick was to take his beloved teddy bear/giraffe puppet that he brings with him to school everyday and stick it down his pants and then make it "reappear." he stuck it down his pants and then literally asked "do you want to see it reappear?" so i said yes, of course. but then a minute or two later as he's sticking it down his pants again he says something but i can't make it out. he says it again and i catch something...so i ask him "something came out of your underwear?" and he says something like "ya, my penis." i'm kind of shocked at what's coming out of his mouth and then i do the typical response of "ohh ya?" but then add "well you better put it back in!" -- what else do you say to that? haha and then the best part...he pauses for a second and then says "I can't find it."
i told my boss this a bit later and we both laughed.

one little boy randomly said his mom was "handsome" today. how cute

and another one that just killed me today! one of my favorite little boys from the Common School points out a plant in the room that's in a pot. he's talking about how pretty it is and then walks over to lift it up. before the woman i work with can tell him not to pick it up he already has it in his hands. and then he says
"it's not very heavy. it's only 3 minutes heavy."
the woman i work with and i just look at each other and start laughing! she says to him "Oh ya, 3 minutes heavy?" and then he goes "YA! and that's not heavy."
HOW FUNNY! 3 minutes heavy? that's gotta be one of my favorites yet.

so ya, some of these kids have ridiculously funny things that come out of their mouths. and hopefully i will be there to keep writing them down to share.
hope you get a kick out of them like i do.
