Kids say the Darndest Things

Happy Almost New Years!!

We are over visiting our Daughter and her family. My Daughter had a Doc visit Friday. My wife and Granddaughter went with her. They ALL went into the exam room.

The nurse was going thru the usual questions, do you smoke, etc. She asked my Daughter if she drank. My Daughter answered "yes, occassionally". My Granddaughter popped up and said "Yeah, when we make her mad!!!!" Wonder what was written in those records!!!

Not to be outdone, later our Granddaughter was out fishing in the pond next to their house. She caught her second fish. She already had one in a bucket and went to get water in another one. My wife said she could put that fish in the same bucket with the other one. My Granddaugter said "But they will fight". My wife said "No they won't" and dropped the second fish in the bucket. That fish started splashing around to which my Granddaughter said "What do you think that is???"

She is 9 years young!! Gotta love them.

May your New Year bring many blessing,

Danny

Lesson learned: "There are no family secrets when you have a nine year-old." I, too, would love to know what the nurse wrote about drinking.

This is a conversation I had with a first grader...

This is a conversation I had with a first grader...

I was on recess duty and some of my students were hanging around me asking all kinds of questions like 6 year olds can do.
A girl from another teacher's class came over and listened for a few minutes.

Then she said, ' Do you have a child at home?'
I said, "No, I don't".
She said, " A wife?"
I looked at her and kind of frowned.
She said, " You know, like a prince? You know..."
I said, "You mean a husband?"
She said, "Yes!"
I said, " No, I had one but he died". (Some of my kids know that.)
She said, " Oh...Do you have any food?"
I said, "Oh yes, I have food".
She said, " That's good. At least you have food,"
And she walked away.
It makes you wonder what goes on in their mind.
