Share your story of funny things your kids said eather now or when they were younger.

When my children were younger I got them both watches too teach them how to tell time. My son's watch was inadvertently set two minutes faster than my daughter's. She proceeded to get very upset. When I asked her why she was so upset she said " But Dad when we go somewhere Andy will get there before I do"!
Many years ago we saw a Coyote running through a open field. My son asked " Dad how fast can Coyote run"?
" At a dead run probably 30 to 35 mph".
Then he asked " Dad how fast can an alive coyote run"?

In my youth, I had a dirt bike that I would take my 3–4-year-old son on. We would occasionally pop a wheely (not sure how that happened). One day he was watching The Lone Ranger on TV and all of a sudden, he said "Dad the Lone Ranger popped a wheely. Was pretty hilarious.

I was changing my oldest Son’s diaper after a major dump, his feet were hoisted in the air as I scrambled to get the wipes, and a fresh diaper, etc. I slid the full one off to the side and he looked over at it and as matter of factly as possible stated “Hey, there’salotofpoopinthere!” All in a one word statement. It took a while to stop laughing (for both of us). 😂
He was almost 1 1/2yrs old and that was his first complete statement (although, seemingly just one word).
I was really tempted to use that story at their wedding rehearsal, but didn’t…

One more! I shared this one a few years ago, but worthy of a re-tread.
When my kids were little and just started in fishing they wanted to catch and keep everything. It didn’t matter to them if they were tiny bluegills, snake Northerns or rock bass. I tried to instill the lesson that it is okay to let some of them them go to spawn, to grow and perhaps give someone else a thrill. We should be sure to appreciate the opportunity.
Well, that last lesson turned on me about 7-8 years later while the boys and I were on a camping trip in Northern WI. I am an early riser, so I left them a note to call me on the walkie talkie when they wanted me to come in for breakfast. I was sitting in my favorite spot in front of a friend’s cottage, soaking a leech and casting a crank bait when the kids showed up on the pier. My youngest called me just when my slip bobber disappeared... I told him to hold on as I set the hook. For the first time ever, I felt confident I had the right equipment for whatever may be on the other end of the line. My rod doubled over and the game was on. The smallie jumped about 6 or 7 times over the next 3-4 minutes while the kids watched from about 60yds away. My little guy was calling me, asking if it was a good one and I would give him one or two word answers, then drop the walkie talkie. They would laugh when it jumped. I had it to the boat twice and when I would reach for the net, it would head back for the bottom. It was as big around as an NFL football and close to 24” long. I had one last look at it as I grabbed the net and it dove one last time before the line snapped. I sat down in my seat on the casting deck as my play by play guy called and asked if I lost it...yeah was all I could say. He immediately fired back with “I’ll bet you really appreciated the opportunity!”
All I could do was laugh, pack my stuff and pull the anchor. His comedic timing was impeccable. I called him back and said it was time for breakfast.

Okay, one more…
While in church…the oldest Son (probably 4 or 5 at the time) was listening carefully to the Easter homily when the Priest puts a different emphasis on a certain portion of his statement “We are, BUT dust…”
#1 Son looks at me and says “Dad, he said we are BUTT Dust!” I started to chuckle a bit, as well as the folks in the pew in front of us. Mom gives me “the get him out of here look”
So we excused ourselves from mid-pew and I had to explain it to him once we were outside…
That apple didn’t fall far from the tree…

OK, I'll tell on myself. At 10 years old I got to go deer hunting for the 1st time with my Dad, Uncle, Grandpa, and two teenage cousins. I could only carry my BB gun but had a time shooting everything in the forest and getting into trouble for making to much noise on the first day. Hanging around my cousins I learned a new word and what it meant. The next morning we were all in the trailer sitting at the table while Uncle and Gramps cooked breakfast. That's when I shared with everyone that I "sure had one hell of a boner this morning." First and only time I ever seen my Grandpa laying on the floor laughing. My Dad and Uncle ran outside laughing hysterically and my cousins were laughing so hard they were crying real tears. Amazing how that one sentence has followed me my entire life!

Had just got a 1990 gmc. Going to lake and had grandson with us. He started crying, wife asked what I had done to him. Nothing I answered. We asked him what was wrong all he did was sob and point at the gas pedal. I was using cruise control.

Try telling you 5 yr old daughter why you can't turn around so she can see them making bacon.

Slowing down for a stop sign I looked over to see n boar on a sow.
