So funny you just have to laugh...
Family friends came visiting and brought along some fried chicken and a box of donuts. Andy (10yo AS) immediately opened the box of donuts and dove in to enjoy them. Surprised, our friend said, "Andy...who told you that you could have a donut?!" Without hesitation, Andy pointed to the words on the donut box and explained: It says " Open Here".
John (6yoAS) was in Speech class learning 'what a compliment is'. His speech teacher told him that she liked his haircut and then asked John to 'give her a compliment'. John was stumped until the speech teacher suggested that he tell her that he liked her shoes. The next day, John was getting ready for school and he had put his shirt on backwards. Confused, we asked John why he was wearing his shirt backwards. He replied, "Yesterday I got 8 compliments. Today I'm going to get at least 10!"
Six year old Sam (AS) was stressed out after a long day at school. He seemed sullen and depressed. After a long period of silence, he spoke. "Do you know", he said, "that if you drop a meatball on the floor you will get *expended*" Figuring there must have been an 'incident' in the cafeteria, I asked him, "who told you that?" Sam responded, "the girls in the office". Later on we discovered that the "girls in the office" were the principal and the assistant principal.
I was driving down the road with Mark (11yo AS) when he looked out the window and saw a car in someone's front yard with a sign in it that said "For Sale". Pointing to the car, he says, "Look mom....there's a Yard Sale."
Melanie (5yo AS) was sitting in church with her hands over her
ears. She turned around and looked at the congregation behind her.
With a puzzled look on her face, she looked up and asked, "Why is everyone
looking at me?". I smiled and joked, "Because you're so
pretty!"
"I'm not pretty.", she argued.
