Do you have witty children? Have you ever had moments where your children said something so funny it made you laugh so hard you could spit milk out your nose? Have they ever caught you off guard with intellectual responses that were way above their understanding, but somehow they understood, and it floored you? Kids DO say the darndest things. And we are looking for some help in compiling a montage of those collective quips, witty responses, and downright funny kids stories. If you are a REAL mom with REAL kids and have memories that STILL make you laugh out loud LOL, then please feel free to submit them to the following email address. If your response or story is used, your name and your child’s name will appear in a nationally publicized book for all the world to see. Be a part of the “Down in the trenches MOMS and their smart *** kids†book!!! Example of one of the Author’s children… Ok, here's a jest for you that happened when my oldest son (Dustin, the 21 year old) was about 8. My sister and I were driving around Dallas and Dustin was in the backseat (eavesdropping and we didn't realize it). She was discussing a man, Barney, that she worked with at an aviation company who was kind of nerdy, but had money, and we were talking about his love life of sorts, and she was discussing why he couldn't seem to get a date but that if he did, he couldn't hold onto a woman. I stated, "He probably can't get a date because he is so anti-social" and without missing a BEAT, Dustin piped in and said "He probably can't get a date because he is a big purple dinosaur, gawd mom," He assumed we were discussing BARNEY the irritating TV show character. We laughed about that, once it dawned on us what he meant, until I had to pull over and we almost were peeing our pants. I will never forget that. http://www.myspace.com/DITTmomsBOOK Let us hear your stories. Down in the Trenches Mom’s Book: Here or [email protected] or [email protected]
Children everywhere. Yours, mine, those who are far away and hungry and cry out for help. The kids who are secretly abused and mistreated and still grow up to be strong whole individuals. Kids are who we teach them to be. They learn by watching. They learn by example, so lead by example. They grow up TO BE us. We are the pallet from which they learn. Teach them wisely, love them deeply, and lead them down the right path in life sternly. And when they screw up and say something really funny- EMAIL it ot me!!!!
