- At 2 years old, I told the Gig that she was "making Mummy very sad". Only to be eyed up and down, and asked "Where are your tears then?".
- This time she was 3, and not feeling well. I put my hand on her forehead and said, in time-honoured Mummy fashion, "Cool as a cucumber". Two minutes later, she put her hand on my forehead. "Cold as a pumpkin, Mummy."
- When picking up my 4 year old nephew L from his last day at daycare as my sister and her family were moving to another city, I told L to say, "bye Eastville*!". L repeated, "Bye Eastville". From the seat next to him, six year old Gig said "See you in Hell, Eastville!".
- At 4, on a plane, reading the safety card, (breathlessly) "It's true! They do have slides!". Yep, honey, and with any luck we won't be needing one!
- Fairly recently, having heard her dad use the expression "gorillas" for thousands of dollars, she looked at her school fees and said "Whoa! That's a lot of gorillas!". Sadly, she was right.
I wanted to include a photo of my angelic daughter, but I'm stuggling with uploading one. I have no idea why it won't work, but I refuse to be frustrated so I'm giving up. Sorry. Anyway, I hope my funny girl made you laugh!
I just love the things kids say!
ReplyDeleteKids are the best entertainment! I hope I don't need one of those slides when i fly next week either!
