Kids Say the Darnedest Things

Well, I think it is time to record some of the things Brock has said lately. First I must preface with a quick story. One Sunday in church, long before we had any kiddos, we were sitting behind a family with four young boys. During a quiet part of Mass one of the boys tooted (that's what we call them in our home these days) and it gave us the giggles. The Mom turned around and said, "if you think that's funny, you should come to our house." Well, we have never forgotten that day and often reflect back on that moment as we experience our own funny times with our kids. Hopefully some of these will make you smile just as they did for us.

I made the mistake of telling Brock that I once jumped out of an airplane. Well, a couple of weeks after that reveal he asked out of the blue....
Brock: Mama, did you get a boo-boo when you jumped out of the airplane?
He is a thinker...

While at church one Sunday...
Brock: That boy has orange hair. I want orange hair!!!

One morning while getting ready for church...
Brock: I don't want to go to church.
Mama: We need to go and thank God for everything we have.
Then while sitting in a quiet church he loudly said...
Brock: Mama, I need to thank God!!
The lady next to us thought that was the cutest thing ever.

Singing Jesus Loves Me...
Brock:  Jesus Loves Me, This Rhi-no 

While walking at the park one evening...
Brock:  Mama, watch out for that old lady!
And as the 40 year old woman jogged right by us...
Brock:  Mama, I said WATCH OUT FOR THAT OLD LADY!


And....he takes an interest in his boy parts...
Brock:  Isn't it SOOO big!
About his brother's...
Brock:  What is wrong with Wyatt's?  It needs to grow bigger!
While we were in the Ladies Restroom at Six Flags he yelled...
Brock:  Mama!  You don't have a .....!
We teach him the anatomically correct name of such parts, but I don't really feel like typing that on the blog.

While in the restroom at a restaurant, someone tooted...
Brock:  Mama!  Did you hear that?  Someone tooted!
Mama:  Yes, Sweetie.  I heard.  (trying not to crack a smile)
Brock:  Someone tooted!  Stinky!  (over and over and over he said this)


Just yesterday he told me a joke.
Brock:  What has four legs but never runs?
Mama:  What?
Brock:  A TAME-O
Mama:  Do you mean table?
Brock:  No!  A TAME-O
Mama:  What's that?
Brock:  A teensy, tiny baby crocodile that turns into a butterfly.
Well, at least he has a good imagination....
