My granddaughter is four now and a talker.

Me: Aubree, start getting ready for bed.
Aubree: ok... ahh oww oww ouch it hurts
Me: What hurts???
Aubree: Im not quite sure, i think i have a bad case of the diagnosis.
Me: and just what is your diagnosis?
Aubree: what the doctor said was my diagnosis.
Me: What did the doctor say your diagnosis was?
Aubree: The doctor said i cant go to bed.

:D

My own kids are grown with kids of their own. I miss having children that age. :o
 
That's cute Michael. My boy is almost 17...been alot of years since he said cute stuff like that.

Doing bookwork while sitting in an easy chair. Rosemary walks up & looks up at me. "Whats that in your nose,daddy ? "
"Hair honey,why ?"

"Thats funny,I got boogers in mine"

I had to remind my daughter of things she said when she was that age. She wanted pantycakes for breakfast and pasketti for supper. When asked her name, it was "Fiffer". Which is still my pet name for her. Aubree calls her "Jensifer". Jennifer is the only family member left to visit me when I am in the hospital. My older son lives in Florida and I see him about once a year if I am lucky. My brother lives in Houston and I see him every couple of years. As the great American philosopher said, "some of it's magic and some of it's tragic, but it's been a good life always".
 
lol. good stories guys. and yes...the kids. mine are also older...two boys...eldest just finished freshman year at college. youngest is finishing up 8th grade.

When my eldest was young...maybe 3-4....we were standing in line at a busy bank. in front of us was a large woman. (i will pause the story here to explain that a whisper to a 4 yr old means cupping your hand around your mouth, but still essentially shouting up to me). Anyway...my son leans in and "whispers"...."Daddy? Why is she so fat???"

D'OH!! You can imagine how good i felt when the lady in question turned right around to give us a look.

But, even with those moments....yes....i do miss those days. the days of innocence. the memories, though, will live on until i cannot remember things any more.

thanks Codger for starting the post and giving me some time to reflect and smile. enjoy those grandkids.
 
Ha. that's excellent Codger....i just read your latest comment. the best was when the firetruck drove by, sirens blaring, and my boy gets excited and starts screaming, "a firef@ck! a FIREF@CK!"

good reference too. one of my favorite buffett songs.
 
My son is now 35 years old. When he was five, I came home from work and my wife said, "Michael has a question to ask you after dinner. He has been listening to some of the older boys on the street."" Yeah, she had passed the buck big time.

when we sat down to talk, he innocently asked me what the F word meant. I told him that it was a vulgar word for the sex act, and then had to explain what that was. I did do with a frank level of detail. When I finished, he looked sideways at me, grinned and said, "That's the silliest thing I ever heard in my life."

Now I have two grandchildren, so he must have changed is mind later.
 
When my nephew was about 6 years old he dropped a ball into the toilet at my father's place and it wouldn't flush right afterwards. He stood there while we pulled up the toilet and then I found the ball was too big for the drain pipe and was stuck on the end of the toilet. I grabbed the ball and then the young boy in a serious tone of voice and a face to go with it said; 'wouldn't it have been easier just to buy another ball'. My father and I looked at each other and had a good chuckle, it was priceless.
 
I have 2 boys...Dallas turned 8 after Christmas and Logan just turned 7 the end of April...and they always have some pearls of wisdom for their mother and me...on his way out the front door this moring Dallas looks to his mom and says "I love you...I'll bring back some knowledge for you." (mind you his mom just finished getting her Masters degree...) I love my kids...as someone else here already stated "Anything I get to hear my little boys say is a treasure to me. "
 
My kid cousin threw a tantrum when he was a toddler, as I didn't want to show a movie (Dragon: Bruce Lee life story) he watched like a 100 times.
My Sister and I to rip him off further, imitated him whining, fake crying and all.

David: "I WANT TO WATCH BLUCE LEE! ....... I WANT TO! ......etc............ YOU MUSTN'T CRY!!!!!"

Years later when he was 10 he gave me that same movie for my birthday.
 
My son is 2 1/2 currently. Just last night his mother and I were doing the name your body parts game with him. I touch his elbow and ask him "what's this?" "Elbow!" He proclaims. We go through all the parts; hand, foot, nose, mouth, eye, belly button (always a good one to tickle him!). Well by now he is going on on his own, saying hair, teeth, tongue, etc. Well he lifts up his shirt and says belly, and booby. His mother is sitting on the floor in front of him standing there going through all this when he looks at her and pokes her square in the breast and says "mommy has big boobies!"

Oh we had a great laugh at that one! Yes, son, she does.

A buddy told me this one about his niece. It was Easter morning and his brother and sister in law being regulars at the Lutheran church had their little 3 year old girl all dressed in a pretty Easter dress and hat with matching shoes. Everyone was hyped up for the day and family get together later so when everyone was loaded up and ready to head to the church little Easter princess asks, "Where the hell are we going?" Mom had a fit and asked dad who had taught her to swear like that.
