okay, this should be fun...

i have a five y/o son. she still sleeps with me. i've even tried putting another bed in my room just for him. to wean him from my bed. :lol: i was about as successful with breastfeeding. let's say we stayed "connected" for 18 months. (ouch)

the other morning we are laying in bed, we both sleep with no shirt. it's get too **** hot for me at night. he does as i do. if i sleep with a shirt, he does. if i don't...

anyway the breasts aren't as firm as the use to be, no thanks to him. he looks over at my breast and says, "mom, shouldn't those be up there", as he's pointing to the touches the top of my chest.

he son started kindergarten this year. he is in the halfday program, he missed the birthday dateline by 4 days. anyway, i have been dropping him off at school and walking him to his class since school started. a few weeks ago i told him that he was going have to start taking to bus TO school. he was excited and wanted to try it the next day. the next day came and he decided against it. i told him we would wait til he was ready.

this morning we get up earlier than usual. he done his bathroom grooming, fixed and eaten his bowl of cereal, and has dressed himself. he tells me, "i want to ride the bus to school but you won't let me." i'm like, "hey you can do that today if you want."

my son is painfully shy and won't assert himself (like his momma when she was young. YES, i was shy at one time) i started preparing him what would happen, explaining that there would be more people on the bus and to ask someone if he could sit with them if he couldn't find a seat. i also asked my neighbors who also attend the same school, to make sure he got a bus. i also told him that he would have to find his way to his class.

we usually kiss and hug each other as i drop him off at his classroom. at his last daycare he started making me move out of eyesight before we exchanged our affection. when i dropped him off at class, he makes me do it away from the doorway. before he didn't mind if his classmates saw him. (my boy is growing up.)
today i figured i wouldn't chance getting a hug but i bent down for a kiss. while doing so i told him, as i usually do, "i'll see you when you get off the bus this afternoon." he hesitantly gave me the kiss and then placed his little hand to my mouth and said, "don't say that".

a lump developed in my throat and i fought back tears as he got on the bus and found a seat. he sat on the other side. good thing, i think if would have seen him ride off, i would hae waved again and the tears would have fallen.

i did call his classroom to make sure he got there. teacher said he made it just fine.

he done growed up!

yeap!!! a young king .....they can do things u think was never
on there minds and say stuff unheard of ....

Thandi, it gets really painful when he won't want to hold your hand in public anymore ~ round about age 9 or 10. At about 12 or 13 he'll not want to hang out with you at all. At 16 (which is where we are now), he'll think he's a comedian and impersonator and will spend his efforts trying to entertain you.... they CAN be hilarious!

Remember all of the "firsts" and keep them close because before you know it you will have blinked ~ and he'll be sixteen talking about leaving you and going to college. I swear just 2 years ago my baby was 8 and now he's just about college-bound.

yeah, i miss him when he goes less than a block to spend the night with grandma. i guess i missed having his needs resting smack dab in the middle of my lower back. and having to tell him to, "move over" as he gradually makes his way to my side of the bed.

now my niece, 20 months old is quite different from how my son was at her age. she's quite aggressive (must be the capricorn in her.)

she gonna be the paint/glue/paste eating girl you knew in kindergarten.

the other day my sister calls telling me her daughter had just eaten a tube of lipstick. she ended up in her dad's face, opened mouth and said, "aaaaaaaa". he couldn't tell what she had eaten, i guess my sister recognize her shade of lipstick on her teeth.

she was taking a nap at my house yesterday. when i checked on her a few times. later she comes in with her hands covered with children's advil and incense ashes. she had emptied the contents of the medicine all over my bed.

just now i noticed her going for the ketchup bottle. she was about to wrap her lips around the top.

my niece is also a bully. i try to teach my son to be gentle and not do anything to hurt her. thing is she gets the best of him. for a while she use to go up to him, take both his cheeks in her hands and twist them. we didn't believe him when he said she was pinching him. i figured how bad could it be. then i witnessed it one day. she put him in a death drip. LOL!

i'd love to hear some more THINGS THAT KIDS DO AND SAY from yall.

i know yall gots some chil'ren. :D

i can tell ya this one ......when my son was 5 he use to look
out the window waiting for me to come home from work
he run and hide somewhere and i had to fine him ....we did
this every day one day i didn't look and he stayed in his hiding
place and went to sleep i mean we look for him like two hours
he was tucked away in the room under da bed sleep
and this was too sweet when we go out he held so close to me
he would put his little finger in my belt hoop as we walk
kids can do the wildest thangz u know

rich, my sister was playing the same hide and seek game with us. actually she had talked about running away, but she was only about 7 so we knew she wouldn't go far. she hid in a closet we used for storage in a backroom. we called all over town and couldn't find her. when we were about ready to call the police, she awoke from her hiding place. she almost got her butt whipped because my mom didn't believe her. we had looked in the closet but she had covered herself with clothes.

last evening, my 2 yr old said, "mommy, it's a star!" and i said, "yes, it's a star. do you know who made the stars? Jesus."
"Jesus made the stars? Jesus made the trees?"
"yes, Jesus made the trees."
the she said without missing a beat, "who made the fire truck?"

true story!

my son spend most saturdays with grandma, which just so hapens to be just down the street (ohhhh how so convenient). on one particular saturday they just kept calling me for just little things.

my mom calls, "your son wants to know if you will bring over his such and such toy".

my response, "no i am not walking down there to bring him that. tell him to play with something else.

my mom, just like any other grandma, finds it hard to say no to my son. so the next time, she has him call him.

my son, "mom can you bring me this or that?".
my reply, "no aj, i am not gonna bring you that, play with something else.

next call (the 3rd in 15 minutes), moms calling again, "so, what you doin now?".

i guess my son didn't like what grandma made for dinner. she calls to ask me to go to burger king for them. my response, "no, i am not going to burger king, I AM TRYING to take a nap!"

ring-ring, ring-ring, ring-ring. it's my son, AGAIN, "mom? can i ride my bike to burger ?"

my mom stilling laughing.

my reply, "no aj, you don't even know how to get there."
he says, "uh huh, grandma told me. you just go down the hill."

i say, "no aj, you can't go to burger king by yourself. "

he's persistent, "can i ride my bike to burger king?"
"no, aj you can't ride your bike to burger king."
he says, "well, can i ride my scooter?"

mind you, my son is only 5 years old.

it seems he had went through this same routine with my mom. she gave him a dollar, told him how to get there, but she also told him he have to ask his mother if he could go.

now that's funny! :lol: -7

Kids are the most compassionate and forgiving beings. Sometimes the even say the weirdest funniest things.

I was wondering, what are some of the things you ever heard kids say that made you laugh?

It don't matter if you are not a parent. Surely you've talked with some of these little darlings. Come share your experience and marvel at these little inquisitive minds.

Well here goes!

My niece who is three now had gotton a diaper rash when she was wearing diapers. It was itching her and she scracthed herself and drew blood. She came running to me crying that she was bleeding. I'm looking all over for blood to be gushing out and thats when she pulled up her dress and pointed to her private part. She looked at me all frightened and scared then thats when she told me she needed a bandaid. :jawdrop: LOL! now sisters you can imagine what came to my mind. LOL! Geesh! I never thought of using a bandaid! :lol:


Well, you know this is mosquitoes season. My six year old came to me lookin all sad and depress. She said that she don't ever want to go outside again. . I asked her why not, She says because of the mosquitoes. Then she tells me that GOD must don't like us. I asked her why do you think that. She said that God created mosquitoes and mosquitoes bite us. :laugh:

:laugh: Yes, kids do say the darnest things.
I used to work in a big department store and on the weekend I would take my daughter there to the toy department, then we would go to the snack bar to have lunch. We went there one saturday and I saw my boss, who promised me a raise in a week, (white man) as we was walking towards him I spoke to him, and in turn he looked down and gave her a smile and spoke to her (then 3 yr.) he said hi pretty girl, ...she said, hi cracker, I could have melted. I said (trying to clean it up) his name is Al. She turned and looked at me and said: mommy, daddy said he was a cracker. I was so outdone...and by the way, I never got that raise. :laugh:

ROTF! Hahaha! Sister no!:lol: :crying:
Say it aint so! LOL! :laugh: That is hilarious!
LOL! I'm gonna laugh all night! LOL!
Thank you for sharing that! Hahaha!

:laugh: Yes, kids do say the darnest things.

That is hilarious Queentswana! I definately have to be careful of that in the future, although I do plan to teach my daughter African words so we can speak publically about crackers....LOL! My daughter is to young to say that much, and she mixes words in Spanish & English. At this point the thing she says with the most conviction is, "Deee"!

My 3yr old grandson had an ear infection one day and was taken to the doctor's office for precautionary measures. The doctor started checking him out and began to look in one of his ears...when the doctor put the tool in one of his ears, my grandson told the doctor "not THAT ear, the other ear!" :tongue:

"not THAT ear, the other ear!"
LOL! Hahaha! :lol:
Thank you Zero Gravity! LOL!

I mean, what can you say...kids at this age is very funny, and they will have you :rolling:

Not that was the funny part about it, the first words she learned in swahili is: Black and White. She has been speaking african language since she was 3 ...I have no idea why at that time she chose to call my boss..."cracker"...my daughter is a trip in itself. How old is little panafrica?

She is 20 months........and I'll teach her (well my wife will) Bubi, which is her grandparent's native tongue.

And now is a very good time to start, at 20 months (perfect time) she'll learn and pick up the english language naturally. White people become very afriad when they don't know or understand what you're talking about :)

Okay, was there ever a time when your kid or the kid of someone you know......said something cute at a Not So Cute Time? and you were embarressed? Or Shocked? or just died laughing! Because you know kids sometimes say some of the darnednest stuff. Or they'll say stuff sometimes (grown-up stuff or stuff they pick up from other kids) and you can't believe it came from them!

How about this: I'm home sitting on the couch looking out the window and I see who I thought were JEHOVAH'S WITNESS (two women) coming towards our apartment because my youngest son who's outside playing has told them "My mommy home but my daddy ain't" So I jump up! Tell my Oldest Son who's in the house with me.... "tell'em Mommy in the shower!" He goes right to the door as I am hiding in the hall and SAYS: "SHE SAID, she ain't home!" If you could've seen the look on my face! I can't imagine the look on the two women faces. When the coast was clear, I just told my son, THANKS A LOT! YOU JUST TOLD'EM I WAS HERE AND NOT HERE IN ONE SENTENCE!! All he could say was "Oh?".

How about this one.. when my sister was pregnant with her oldest son, her then husband had a bunch of nieces and nephews... One of the older boys (he should have been about 5 or so) kept staring at her belly. She put his hand on her stomach so he could feel the baby move. She told him, "That's your little cousin in there." He asked, "How'd he get in there?" and then answered his own question by screaming: "YOU ATE HIM! DON'T EAT ME, TOO!" He and his younger cousin would not go near her for the rest of the day.

Kids is Kool, even tho expensive. Let me give you some famous quotes from my kid kousins and 1 from me:

"My Daddy do not want to go out with you, why he got to date a wilderbeast?" - B. Johnson Age 10

"My Daddy always talkin S***, he do not know what he talkin about" - B. Johnson Age 10

"You do not want to date her, she is a bit too loose"
- Meka B. - Age 5

"Giving Me Money benefits my future"
- Tysheria R. Age 6

"Mama I just filled the bathroom floor with water to make a beach"
- Manasiac age 5

I remember once when my daughter was 4 or 5 and we both were at home watching football. Naturally I was getting "excited" and using somewhat "colorful and expressive" language without realizing she was soaking all this up like a sponge. Later that evening when we had guests over the house my daughter walked up to my mother-in-law and with the most serious expression on her face said: "my daddy told that "a**hole" on TV to kick the f***king ball but he didnt and daddy got mad...".

needless to say I was like...OMG!!!...LMAO.
I learned right then and there to watch my mouth around the younguns since they are truly like sponges!!! :nono:

Ok this is so cute.... Lmbo


First thing is ....
My God daughter was about 2. We had been out all day at something called UNITY Day they have it each year in Philly. We came home and she wanted to go to sleep. I was about to help her take her clothes off but something happened and I was side tracked looking for something. For about 5 minutes she patiently sat on her bed and waited for me but I guess she got tired of waiting and she came and tapped me on my leg and said God mom I'm soooo tired I'm gonna sleep. I said ok give god mom 2 seconds. She took her clothes off and got in her bed and that was it for her the rest of the night. When I looked at her again I just smiled.

Secondly
My nephew was about 2 1/2 or 3. unlike most kids his age he wouldn't talk. We thought something was wrong with him. We took him to speech specialist and everything. We was worried.

The doctor asked us has he said anything since his last visit we told him no he just smiles and hunch his shoulders as to say i don't know. the doctor said well he's in good health all around and he couldn't understand why my nephew wouldn't talk.

So the doctor started talking to him and like normal he didn't say anything but when the doctor gave him his needle my nephew said.

"Ooooh sh*t" That hurt."
LMAO
when he said it my brother and I both busted out laughing

I have a million and one stories from my archive of all my little ones. I don't have any children but I have alot of God children, neices, and nephews. If you want more I'll gladly share.

Toylin, Greggy, Manasiac, & Poeticsoulsista, I'm Logging on today from the LIBRARY....with my hands over my mouth trying not to BUST OUT LAUGHING In here! Oh Man! Those were hilarIOUS! Kids...Gotta love'em though.

Better than my son today. He's trying to talk, so he says a few words, and he shakes his head no.So, today, I told him was going to his father's house for the weekend. The convo kind of went like this:

Me: You're going to see Daddy.
Him: No.
Me: Yes, you are. And you'll ahve fun.
Him: No.
Me: Yes, you.
Him: Yuck.
Me: Boy! You love Daddy.
Him: Stink, yuck!
Me: Boy! Stop that
Him: No. Juice? (throwing down his empty cup)
Me: No we have to go. I'll get you a cookie.
Him: Good.

children can say thangs we least heard and make some wild statements
they lovely and sweet

I remember a few years back when I'd put on a little weight and felt fat. My daughter asked me why I stopped wearing a certain outfit. I told her I stopped wearing it because I was fat.

My daughter said, "mom, you aren't fat, you just have muscle waiting to happen." Breyahna, age 10.


That was so true!

awwwww. I hope me and my daughter relationship is like that when I have one.

Poetic Sista

Thandi, I know excatly how you feel. I have a 5yr old Nephew and He just talks and talks and talks...He's really bright tho', and he never ceases to amaze me. I can't wait till my little girl gets to that I age, she'll be 1yrs old on Friday!. She already tries to repeat what I say to her.

You said that your niece is the"Paste" eater, well, my daughter will most like be the "Bully", she's forceful, if she see's something that she wants-she goes after it! she's a scorpio. But I'm gon' break her of that tendacy, as that is not a good guality to possess. LOL Thandiwe!

Here's a good one, makes me feel old though.

I have records filed away and my 6 year old wanted to know what was on my big CD's.

I couldn't even play them for him since I don't have a record player anymore.

cute thing they say can be wild and sometime be real truth u can learn from kids

I have two instances both with my neices, when they were real young.


My niece was 3 years old and I took her to the grocery store. The cashier, a white lady,was commenting on how cute she was and handed my neice a pack of m&m's and told me it was on her. So my neice goes "Look Auntie, the pink lady gave me some candy!!"

Another instance, some of my old college friends now out of state, got together for a little reunion. My same neice, about 4 years old then, tells one of my friends "I like your pretty yellow teeth." So everyone gets real quiet because my friend did have a little problem with her teeth, so my sister starts stuttering and goes "Oh she gets her colors confused, sometimes she thinks white is yellow and yellow is white." So my neice goes "Na ah, and starts pointing to all of my friends and goes. "her teeth is white, her teeth is white, her teeth is white, and her teeth is yellow!" Then my friend says through a very tight smile "Thank you baby" I was so embarassed, but I knew my neice didn't mean any harm



Not too long after that they came out with this toothpaste commercial w/a teacher asking what color her teeth were and the kids said off white, ecru., etc. So I received all these phone calls when people saw the commercial and they were cracking up and said it reminds them of my neice.
