I have this collection of the funny things my kids say. I thought, for your midweek pick-me-up I might share some of them with you. These are from the Spring of 2013 – so they’re oldies but goodies. This was from three years ago, so Maya was almost 5 and Sydney was 6. All of my kids are hilarious, but this particular season was filled with mostly Maya-isms.
“I’ve been thinking…wouldn’t it be cool if I could be invisible while I am in the sea? That way sharks couldn’t eat me.” – Maya
“Did you know that spies are from another planet? They’re kinda like astronauts. They can come to this planet though. Isn’t that cool?” – Maya
“Jesus is sending us a note again. A pink note. In the sky.” (she believed that anytime the sky was beautiful, it was Jesus sending us a love note) – Maya
Mom: “Maya, what would you like to learn about?”
Maya: “Cake. And eyeballs. Bloody eyeballs.”
Maya: “Can you get me that for my birthday? (A little stuffed unicorn)
Mom: “Maybe for your birthday.”
Maya: “No. No maybe. I want that. I’m not kidding.”
“Business in the front…Flowers in the back!” – Maya
February 13, 2013 …. We had roast for dinner.
Maya: “Ewww! I like helping animals. Not eating them!”
Syd: “Mmmm! Can I have some more cow please?”
The Middles (Syd & Maya) were playing and I heard a bit of their conversation:
Sydney: “I’m leaving. I’m going to save the world!”
Maya: “You can’t! The light of darkness is too strong!”
“It’s not okay to punch anyone. That’s not nice. Unless it’s a zombie.” – Maya
“You know what makes werewolves uncomfortable? People. They hate people.” – Maya
March 4, 2013. I was trying to explain the different parts of the cow that we eat. We get to rump roast and Maya says, “Wait! So I’m eating clutius maximus?!”
“I had a dream last night. I know it was a dream because we were all octopuses … and we were all skinny.” – Maya
