Little Mouths

Kids can say some of the cutest things, am I right? You don't have to answer. I already know I'm right. But really, I just love the things kids say. I babysit quite a bit and sometimes I'll write down a quote from some of the kiddos. Here are some of my favorites:

Me: "Maybe you'll find a worm in that hole you're digging, Ev."
Evan (4) "Yup, you're 'aksadutely' right, Miss Tiffany."

Isaiah (6) "I know something funner than finding worms or putting sticks in a hole or finding snakes... a race!" (after this we did indeeed stop the digging for worms and snakes and raced each other).

Evan (4) "There's lots of b-e-t-s... berries!" (this was when he was learning to spell and trying to spell everything. So cute!).

Evan (4) "I wish you were our real mom and our real mom was  our babysitter!" (I thought this was super sweet... although I didn't tell his "real mom" about it ;)

Dylan (7) "If I had to estimate I'd say he has about 1,000 legos."
"My dad beats about 50% of the people he plays chess against." (this kid is a genius with a huge vocabulary for his age).

Wesley (4) "Listen to this song I made 'I'm naked, I'm naked, in the naked squad." (although he wasn't naked while singing this, he had two bloody noses so he sang it with a tissue up each nostril. It made it 10x more funny).

Wesley (4) "Tiffany?"
Me (thought he was sleeping so a little suprised) "Yea, buddy?"
Wes "I don't really all the time know how to sleep."

Evan (5) "I've decided that I've been working too hard, so I have decided to have you help me build my robot."
Isaiah (7) "Miss Tiffany, decide which is more important: Evan's robot or my chocolate playdough cake."

Athena (4) (while checking freezing weather trying to convince me it's warm enough to go to the park) "Not bad, not bad at all" except x7.
Here's another one from her. This is completely out of the blue while we were playing legos "I wanna' be four. I'm staying four forever!"

Evan (5) "I know what God looks like."
Me "You do?"
Evan "Yes, sometimes he's a burning bush and sometimes he's a twister."
These kids melt my heart!

Nick (4) "Boy colors are just blue, pink, purple, and white. All colors in the world are boy colors!"

Luke (4) (I think he was trying to convince me he was old enough to do something. I just forget what.) "I was supposed to be four, but then I turned five."
Here's another: Luke "Hey what is these?"
Me "Milk duds."
Luke (to me) " Hey these is milk duds!"

Me "Hey Wes, what type of tree is this?" (about some sort of fruit tree in their back yard)
Wesley (4) "That's a potato tree. Growin green potatos."

Erika (5) (pointing to a random house outside my house) "My friend Jake lives there. No... Justin Bieber lives there. Justin Beiber isn't real... he's my boyfriend  not yours, though." And yes, she said that all to herself. In one breath. She's so spunky!
Here's another, a sweet one "Did you know in God's word I'm your sister?"

Faith (6) (while playing doctor) "Tomorrow we're going to have a really bad surgery. It's going to hurt like crud!"

Erika (5) "CJ is not my real dad... only my mom is because she was pregnant." (CJ is indeed her "real dad")

Nick (4) (while driving him home from a birthday party) "You're a good driver Miss Tiffany, but not as good as my mom because you are just a kid."
Here's one from his prayers that night "Dear Lord, please help my to get a  black volvo with a speed track." (and that was his whole prayer lol. This was right before Christmas)

Paxton (2) (to his baby sister) "Evie watchu, want? Watchu want? A cobra? Okay!" (and then he gave her his toy cobra which she wasn't even particularly interested in).

Evan (5) "This house will explode like an exploding poopy!"

Isaiah (7) (defending the neighbor who Evan said he beat when he raced her because she was slow) "That girl wasn't slow. Her dad took care of my lizard when my dad was gone. She's NOT slow!"

Selah (4) (smelling a pumpkin spice candle) " Mmm smells good! Smells like cookies and... SALT! Tastes good, too!"

Selah (4) (while watching a thunderstorm on the lion king) "'Funder' is not fun... well sometimes it's fun."

Luke (2) (I was heading to the garage to throw out a his dirty diaper) "Where go wis ma diapa?" (Where are you going with my diaper?)

Me (I see a little knat thing on the watermelon) "Oh oh, there's a bug on there!"
Selah (4) "That's just watermelon."

Jadon 8 (talking to his little sister (6) who had just sang a prayer song before dinner) "Hannah that's not a prayer, that's a song. Well it's a song that's a prayer."

Elizabeth (8) (gives her little brother a butter knife to cut his bread) "If you cut youself don't cry." then she turns to me "that's a figure of speech."

Evan (5) (to Asher (3)) "Asher, it's not a train ttrack! It's a pancake!" (About playdough that Ash was putting his train in).

Jackson (6) (while wrestling with David who thought they were fighting as animals) "We're in a wrestling contest. There's no animals, just people. So stop trying to be a snake, okay?"

Bella (2) "Fruit means orange, okay? Can I have a fruit?"

Zach (4) (to a little boy with long hair at the park) "Are you a boy or girl?"
Max (7) (right in front of the boy and his dad) "It's a boy. He just looks like a girl because of his long hair." (probably one of my most embarassing babysitting moments).

I hope you enjoyed those as much as I did. I love the cute little things kids say! They're so adorable!
