Funny things kids say....

I've been meaning to jot down a few funny things the kids have said in the last few months.

1. We pull up somewhere (I don't remember where) and the kids get out of the car. Drew points at a truck and says, "What the Hell!" We all try not to laugh and then Bret says, "I think he gets that from Dad." I think he's right.

2. We are out in the backyard and Laci hears the ice cream truck driving through our neighborhood. She turns to me all excited and says, "ice teem tut, ice teem tut!" She then immediately follows that up with, "money, money!" She has obviously been around her brothers way too much. Nick is in trouble...she's already asking for money.

3. Back in May, Cole was at a friend's birthday party. About five other kids and Cole are sitting around a table, eating their cake. They begin asking each other how old they are. One says, "I'm six." Another says, "I'm seven." And, as kids are, they keep trying to out do each other about being older because being older is somehow so much better than being younger (if only that still held true as adults). Cole says, "My cousin is 13." Someone else says, "My cousin is in College." Another says, "I have a cousin who is 30!" Cole, quickly ended the converstation by adding, in his serious, raspy voice, "Oh yeah, well my great-grandpa is DEAD!" It was pretty funny. I don't think any other adults heard this conversation. I just sat there and chuckled to myself.
