The Things Kids Say

I don't have any pictures right now, but I thought I'd post a few of Ryan's recent comments.  I wish I could remember them all.  I love the way he thinks sometimes, or the things that he remembers when you think he's not listening.

On Valentines Day his teacher had some chocolate on her desk.  The kids were commenting on how much she had, when Ryan said "That's how mommies can't fit in their jeans."

Ryan's Sunday School teacher told me they were talking about the other teacher taking a trip to Disney World.  She asked if any of the kids had been there.  She said some said yes, others said they were going to, and Ryan very excitedly replied "Nope, but I've been to Texas Roadhouse!"

One day mom and Ryan were talking, and she asked if he'd ever been to the principal's office.  He told her no, and she said it was because he was a good little boy. He then told her he had been in there, but he'd never got to go through all the drawers and her desk.  So, apparently to Ryan you haven't been in a room until you've snooped around a little.  Fair warning in case we're ever at your house! :)
The other night we were trying to get ready for a game.  (the boys were wound up and not paying attention)  Denny went to start the van, and on his way out noticed Ryan hadn't put his jacket on yet.  With his Daddy voice he informed Ryan he'd told him 3 times, and he better get his jacket on.  I walked into the room as Denny went outside and I heard Ryan (with a grin/giggle) say "I told you three times."  Aaron immediately got serious, and took a step away from Ryan.  They had been in giggly moods and playing around, but Aaron knew that went too far.  So, the comment wasn't funny, but Aaron's stepping away like Ryan was fixing to be struck by lightening was.

Okay, I guess we'll do one on Aaron.  It's not real funny, but made me want to ask how old he thought I was.  In the car the other day he asked if they had cars when I was little.  I nicely told him yes, and that they even had them when his Grandparents were growing up, which was a very, very long time ago. :)

A friend of mine's wife had to have an appendectomy.  When praying for her, Aaron asked God to help her independix.  Afterwards he asked if he said it right, and when I told him it was actually her appendix he said "well, that's embarassing..I said the wrong thing to God."  I told him God knew what he was talking about, and it probably made him smile. :)

I wish I could think of more to write.  I need to start writing them down, because Ryan is full of them.  Of course some of his comments are better left between us two. :)  I'm not sure I want to know all the things he tells his teacher, either!
