Out of the mouths of my kids…
Comment on this post! 2 Comments »I had to run to the store last night and Jayci said she wanted to go so we threw her shoes on and headed out. In addition to some dinner fixins, I decided to get some brake fluid to resolve a minor warning indicator issue with Cami’s car.
After we came out of Walmart, I figured it was as good a time as any to top off the brake fluid. I popped the hood and proceeded to dribble a bit of fluid into the master cylinder reservoir. Apparently Jayci was already familiar with the task. She informed me that I was pouring in some “fixermapelent” to fix the car. Fixermapelent? I asked her what that was. She said it was the stuff that I just put into the car to fix it.
On the way home, she saw the moon in the sky: “Daddy, the moon is broken!” Of course she knows how to fix it. She said we needed to use the fixermapelent to fix the moon. ”Just pour it on there and it will fix it.” She also started telling me something about what Jesus would do if he saw us using the fixermapelent on the moon, but got distracted before she could tell me what the consequences would be.
Silly kids! Where do they come up with these things?
Another example… Cami has had a fun time with her pregnancy. She gets ill at the mere site of food. Sometimes she can’t even think about food. She had a difficult time a few days ago trying to prepare lunch for the kids. She said: “I can’t even feed my freakin’ kids!” Jayci immediately responded with: “I can feed my freakin’ self!”
Hahahaha. I guess we know where that one comes from!
