I love it when my 8 year old son says things like, "I remember a long time ago... you know, back when I was 7..."

Today we had a conversation that went something like this:
Son: What was the first word I said as a baby?
Me: I think it was "dada"
Son: Really? What was the last word I said?
Me: When did you stop being a baby?
Son: When I was 3
Me: I'm not sure.

Listen to my daughter complain about work. I feel bad for her, but sometimes it's humorous how customers are absolute idiots.

I remember how my brother believed that we could actually find Sponge Bob under the ocean living in a pineapple. I wonder whether he still believes it. He is 18 now. :P

I had just gone through a breakup and once my five-year-old brother found out about this, he simply shrugged and asked "So who's going to be the rebound guy?"

He's a card, that one

That reminds me of when my nephew was about 9, and I got pregnant (I was single and lost the baby ) But anyway, when his mother told him I was pregnant he said "by who?" lol

My son said to me this morning, "Dad, what about my slithers?" LOL.
He has a sliver in his foot that is troubling him. It's not infected. My wife is going to put a call in to our doctor today.

One time I was cut off in traffic, and I yelled "****!"
My daughter, in the back, said, "No **** mommy!"
I replied, "You're right, no ****."

I didn't cuss in front of her again until she turned 18.

Apparently when I was little, I emptied an entire bottle of lotion into a fish tank. Needless to say, the fish died.

This morning my son said, "Dad, there's a big fly, slap it with the flyslapper!"

My son is in the habit of calling sneezes, "bless you's".

Me: Achoo!
Son: Was that you who just "blessed you?"

My son got engaged last night... (he's 8).

His female friend (FF) found a ring...
FF: Look at this ring (made of wood)
son: Let me see it (she hands it to him)
son: here you go (gives it back)
son: that means we're going to get married someday.

FF thought it was hilarious, and told my wife and I all about it. (we were all enjoying some free music at a local park)

His friend's mom quipped, "by the time he gets around to proposing for real, he won't be nervous at all."

As part of my son's morning routine, before he leaves, he tells us, "bye bye... don't get in any car accidents... and mom, don't get taken to jail if you speed."

My son has been asking a lot of questions lately about what is real or not real. He wanted to know if Santa Claus was real, and I asked him how we could determine that. He said something like, "well if I found parts of a red suit, then I'd know he was real." I said, "what if someone put them there to fool you?"

He thought about it for a while, then said, "I think I'll believe in Santa Claus while I'm a kid, and then give it up when I'm older."

My son likes me to read books to him, and lately he has been requesting that I try use different voices. The other day he wanted me to read a book in a "heroic voice". I did my best, but he said, "dad, that's not a heroic voice, that's a brave voice." lol

My son sometimes confuses "yesterday" and "tomorrow". The other day he said to me, "Do you remember when we melted cheese tomorrow?" Then he corrected himself and said, "I mean butter yesterday." LOL

I saw a Jr. high kid be a jerk one time and say “that guy is really fat!” To the tune of Justin Timberlake’s “I’m Bringing Sexy Back.”

Take things literally--like I would say, "Just a minute" to one of my sons, putting him off--and in a minute he would say, "A minute is up!"

And he got really upset when he saw some kids throwing a football. The very idea. it was only supposed to be touched by feet!
