Out of the Mouths of Babes

I was talking to Mum today and she was telling me some of the funny things that the kids said while they were staying with Nanna and Grandpa for a week in the holidays.  I thought I’d share a conversation that Daisy had with Mum, and later with Dad. Mum had to go to a function on the Saturday night and Dad stayed home to mind them. On the Thursday before Mum was organising to get a lift with another couple that were going to the function. After the phone call with the husband of said couple, Daisy gave Nanna the 3rd degree about who she was on the phone to. The conversation went something like this:

Daisy: Who was that on the phone?

Nanna: That’s the man that I am going out with on Saturday. 

Daisy: (Hands on hips) Does Grandpa know you’re going out with someone else?

Nanna: Ummm, well, yes he does actually

Daisy: And how does he feel about it????

 

 Later on at some stage Daisy talked to Grandpa about it too.

Daisy: Grandpa, did you know Nanna is going out with someone else on Saturday?

Grandpa: Well, yes I did.

Daisy: Well, how do you feel about it??? 

 

Talk about getting the third degree from an eight year old.  Apparently they then explained to her that it was OK, Nanna was just getting a lift to the function with them.Note to self - remind Mum that Daisy takes everything you say very literally - be careful what you say.

    Now I heard a rumour about a post here, but I came to check for myself!
    :wink:
    Kids do take things literally don’t they?
    One of our grandsons loves that Kraft instant macaroni and cheese packet stuff. He would eat it constantly if his mother let him. These days he knows the name of it, but when he was younger he used to call it “cooking” because when he was getting impatient about wanting it, she used to say to him ‘it’s cooking!” so as far as he was concerned that’s what it was..cooking!
    What do you want for dinner Caleb? Cooking!
    You really have to love kids, as frustrating as they can be

    Was Daisy waiting up for Grandma to come home. And when Grandma arrived, did Daisy say “And what time do you call this? Straight to your room, now”

    *giggles* Kids are a crack up.

    Anonymum - LOL, my kids love that stuff too. Unfortunately they have a mean Mum who won’t let them have it very often.

    Anja - You know, if she had the staying power and could still be awake at that time, she probably would have. Speaking her mind is one of her “strengths” - good sometimes, a crack up other times, and then very occasionally, drop dead embarrassing.

    Kelley - She would have been too - and apparently very worried about it all.
