Momma Monday: Kids Say the Darnest Things!



I vaguely remember Art Linkletter's tv show "Kids Say the Darnest Things"--well this concept hasn't changed that much over the years.

There is a precious littel girl around 8 that I know of that was talking with a fellow Asian classmate--she looked at the little girl and asked "Is your mom a tiger mom?"

A little 5 year old girl who came up to Dave at a recent basketball game and looked at Dave and said nicely--"Are you bald?"

One day I was in the hall at school cleaning up some water.  Instead of bending over--I was moving the paper towel over the small spill with my foot.   A young middle school girl stopped and asked if she could help?  I said it is easier this way than bending over.  She looked at me and sweetly said, "I know my GREAT Grandmother is like you!"

Several years ago when Dave was teaching 9th grade health (sex education), a young man asked him if you became crossed eyed from gonnoreah .  Also, he had a 9th grade girl who told him that chocolate milk came from black cows.

Also, I know of a UVA grad (Anni) who asked me when I had a hysterectomy year before last--"Will you still be a woman?"

Worth at 5 told his Sunday School teacher that his Aunt Page's dog Jenny wasn't going to be able to have any puppies because she had her lungs taken out.

Humor is good medicine!   Innocent misconceptions!  The obvious!

Wishing you resilience, health, and joy!!!!!!!
