Snippets of Child...

My coworker has a 5 year old son who always says the goofiest things:

1) "Daddy, today is going to be a good day!"
"Why is that, Ethan?"
"Because today (wednesday) starts with a 'T'!"
"No, Ethan today is WEDnesday; it starts with a 'W'."
"No, daddy....it starts with a 'T.'"
"No, Ethan, Wednesday is 'W.'"
"Daddy - don't ruin my day with the truth!"

2) Walking out of Home Depot last night from buying trees to plant on Earth Day, Ethan was carrying a seedling, and some dirt fell on his arm.
"Awww...Fuck."
"ETHAN!"
Ethan looks sad.
That night, his dad is putting his PJs on, and his dad says, "Now mommy talked to you about saying that word so don't say it, okay? Try saying 'Darn!'"
"DARN!"
"Or Shoot."
"Shi-oot." (Southern accent)
"No no, Ethan, it's 'SHOOT.'"
"Shi-oot."
"You'd better just stick to 'Darn.'"

Cousin's bridesmaid's 4 year old daughter:

1) Kaylin hopping around on her parent's bed while her dad is trying to sleep as he is a cop and works odd hours.
"Kaylin, Kaylin...calm down. You're on crack."
Next morning, Kaylin goes to school...

"Miss Murpy [Murphy]! I'm on crack!"

2) Kaylin says to Ms. Murpy..."Ms. Murpy - this SOOOOOO doesn't work for me."
