Bath Hilarity
I wasn't quite ready to share this story on FB, so you guys get it instead.
Dateline:The Bathtub, last night
At the end of a pretty good day, E had gone to the dark side and was getting upset at every.little.thing. I couldn't even look at him without him yelling. During the bath I asked if he had washed all his 'parts' (yes, we use the anatomically correct names). Immediately he yelled "No! I'm waiting for it to hatch!" He then looked down at himself and proceeded to yell "HATCH!" several times.
Then I got yelled at for laughing at him.
What zingers have your kids come up with lately?

Ebay has developed an overqualified sense of snark worthy of a 16 year old, let alone a 4 year old. So much so that all her snazzy remarks I cannot keep separate to come up with one lone example to share with you.

The other day, the Little Miss runs into the room with three dreidels in her hand and proceeds to cross cultures by saying "You didn't see anything! These aren't the dreidels you're looking for!"

I put Dani in "time out" for the first time a few days ago. Told her to sit on the couch for "time out" and specified the reason. About 15 seconds in, she told me she wanted "time in".

these are awesome!
Ro had me cracking up the other day. My friend Anna and her son were visiting. her son is about 5 months older than Ro. so, 2 toddlers sitting at the kitchen table, Forest drinking water:
Ro (to Forest): that's my water.
Forest: no.
Ro: That's my water.
F: no!
Ro: That's my water.
F: NO!
Ro: That's my water.
F: NO! That's not my water!
Ro: That's my water.
F (getting very upset): NOOO! That's NOT MY WATER!
Ro: That's my water.
F: NOOO!
Ro: That's my water.
F: THAT'S NOT MY WATER!
Ro: That's my water.
Ro never raised his voice or changed his tone. Forest was getting visibly upset. it's like Ro found a button and kept pushing it. Anna and i tried again and again to explain to Ro that yes, it was his cup, we were sharing it... yada yada, but no. he found that damn button and he kept pushing it calmly while poor Forest was getting more and more upset. after the first 20 minutes we took the boys to different rooms, played, changed the subject, Forest got calmed down. brought them back into the kitchen and it started all over again. Finally, i said, "Forest, you have a pronoun problem." we couldn't stop Ro. it was so freakin' funny after about an hour of this.

We were at the very crowded fabric store a couple weeks ago when Ducky (age 2 and a bit) remembered about his penis.
"Ducky penis," he said, pointing to his crotch.
"Yup," I said. "You have a penis!"
"Dragon penis," he said, referring to his older brother.
"Yep," I said. "Your brother has one, too."
"Daddy penis."
"Yep!"
"Mama penis."
"Nope," I said. "Mama doesn't have a penis."
And then he raised his voice, visibly upset yet convinced that he was right.
"IT! IS! MAMA! PENIS!" he yelled.

Since we're on the subject of baths and penises...
We were on a beach vacation last summer and my son was showering with my husband: "Daddy, why do you have seaweed all over your penis?"

Did I ever tell you all about the time my (then two-year-old), formed long skinny pieces of modeling clay in a triangle and then announced "it's a bagina." Oh, by the way, we were sitting at a table with all of my in-laws.

Max and I were talking about something and the subject of body parts came up. Max said, "I'm just going to call ita hotdog." To which I reply, "but the right word is penis, it's not a bad word just the name for that particular part." He adds, "ok, you can also say gah-roin!"

At the end of Quaker meeting, new people to the meeting get a chance to introduce themselves. This week, the little man decided he was going to do it, and stands up and says "I'm [little man]. I have a coworker that died. My coworker got really sick and died. ..." and so on for like three whole minutes. He has no coworker, obviously, nor anyone in our life who has died recently. WTF, dude? Way to creep out a bunch of nice old people (the median age of the U.S. Quaker population is like 74).
