More quotes from a 4-year-old

[AwakeAtLast]

I have posted things my daughter has said from time to time. Here are some I thought you would find interesting:

On Keith Olbermann: "He's funny! (giggles)" Yes, honey, he is. ;)

After I flipped to Dancing With the Stars while Mario Lopez danced: "Mommy, she doesn't have any clothes on!" You're right, honey, she doesn't. :)

Sees the pretzeldent: "Mommy, there's the man who took my Daddy away from me." Yes, honey, he did. (Daddy is home from Iraq now)

1. I have a four year old, too. Some of the things she comes up with

are unbelievable.

"Daddy, my baby doll is thirsty."
"Do you need to make her a bottle?"
"No Daddy, she can just suck on my boob."


"Daddy, it's freakin' hot outside today!!"


After nearly breaking my neck on her blocks that were scattered all over the floor my wife asked me what happened.
"I nearly broke my neck on these effin' blocks..."
From behind I hear, "Daddy, those are my effin' blocks."

4. "the man who took my Daddy away from me."

Jesus, you don't know how much that line mortified me, until I read the rest of you sentence.

I'm a teacher and I used to be so proud of my young boys when they went off and joined the Marines. My experience has always been that Marines do such a great job of turning then into honorable young me. But since this war---shit, I've seen several come home and they just seem so dejected, so disillusioned in ways that I never was when I was 20.

Yesterday one of my brightest young students, a junior, showed me a card from his recruiter and said "look at this. This is what I'm doing when I graduate."

I kept my shit together and told him it's always a good thing to serve his country. But it still eats me up thinking how this administration is just using them as pawns in a power fantasy game. I know my safety and way of life rest on a foundation these young guys build with their lives and blood. But a big part of me wants to scream--Don't join up until there's a Democrat in the White House!

I hope your husband always stays safe. I pray this monkey bastard and his crook friends are gone soon.

I wish I could love what my country does as much as I love my country.

But mostly I'm glad you baby has her daddy back. I wish every child the same.

7. words from my 6 yr old:

"Mommy, I don't care what other people say, in THIS house, Pluto is still called a planet!"

There's no reasoning with her about this. :rofl:

When she was 4 yrs old she declared that the guy on TV was a "bad man". Take a wild guess who giving a speech at the time. I swear I didn't prompt her on this...she came up with this conclusion all on her own.
