Just taking a break from homeschool prep to make sure I get these written down!  I don't believe in embarrasing my children, but hey...they're young, they won't know to be embarrassed until much later!!! Right now, we'll just put under "quips and quotes" and just be glad we didn't have company when these were overheard at our home! ( all words are spelled as phonetically as they were uttered!)     

Faith (4.5 yo)--when watching me put a drip tray under an indoor grill machine: 
"Yesterday, a long time ago when I was 3, the doctor gave me one of those at the hopsital when I threw up."     

Isaiah (2.5yo)- a directive to Papa when eating a hard boiled egg this past Saturday morning.
 "Don't wake up my baby bird."
"What baby bird?"
"This one."( showing the yolk to Papa!)   

 ------------- YES, THESE ARE MY CHILDREN!!! -----------------------  
 I suggested to Pat that maybe we could hold off on science after the bird comment     
I AM curious though...  Is there a test to know if there is a baby bird in an egg, if you don't know where the egg came from?? If it came from a store, not a friend's chicken coop?

 I AM PLANNING TO RESUME MY THURSDAY'S THOUGHTS AFTER I FINISH A SPECIFIC PREP TASK!
Hopefully, it will take not more than a week! I'm creating the DVD covers for our Kindergarten classes!
                                                                               
oh... and if that isn't enough... the following is a list of things I have actually said in conversation with the little scholars! ( forget context!!! I can't even remember what we were talking about!) I had to stop after the first one and thought-- gee, that would make a great book title for a how-to in parenting preschoolers! Don't steal it though-- I think it's copyrighted by virtue of me typing it, but if you do want to write that book, I'll sell ya the title so I can buy a grilling machine without a removable drip tray!

1. Stuffed animals don't drink iced-tea,
2. Dead moths don't like kisses
3. Dead people don't eat peanut butter spoons

Of course these could all just be chapter titles and the book could be called...
 Herding Cats From Your Own Private Corner of the Bathroom ... and other preschool parenting how-to tricks"

 Hey Nancy M!! You have to know that I am thinking of you as I write this!! It's your fault! You did say to write EVERYTHING down!
