with a 5 year old in the grocery store
Me: “Now this [high fiber] cereal is very good for you, because it helps you poo.”
Girl: “Daddy, I know that.”
Me, puzzled: “Really? How did you know?”
Girl: “Because it looks like poo!”
Many kids go through a phase of wanting to marry Mom, or the babysitter, or their favorite teacher, when they grow up.
A friend’s son tells her, very quietly, “Mommy?”
“Yes?”
“If I was to marry you, you’d have to divorce Daddy first, right?”
“Eh… yeeessss…”
“Oh. Then I don’t wanna marry you, I like Daddy.”
“U-hu.
So where did this marry me thing come from?”
"Oh, some of the other boys were talking about marrying their Mommies, but I like Daddy, so I’m going to tell them I don’t wanna marry you.
sigh
Now I’ll have to find me a girlfriend… is that difficult?"
“You’ll have to ask Daddy that one.”
