On Monday, I shared my 5-year-old daughter’s deep thoughts. Today I’m happy (?!) to share my 8-year-old son’s deep thoughts.
I’ve mentioned before that my son loves potty humor. Lately, he’s grown fond of blowing raspberries on his arm. Remember how cute it was to blow a raspberry on a baby’s belly? A 3rd grader incessantly blowing raspberries on his arm all the live long day is not so cute.
Thus, it should come as no surprise that I told him the following when we were getting ready to go to a birthday party on Saturday.
“You will NOT make any raspberries at the birthday party, do you understand?”
He nodded.
Just to cover all my bases, I clarified my expectations further. “You will NOT make any raspberries on the WAY to the birthday party, either. Do you understand?”
He nodded.
He looked thoughtful, then asked, “How about on the way home?”
He was serious, people.
Sigh!
What deep thoughts are your kids having these days?

1. When can I play video games?
2. When is Dad coming home?
Not so deep, I know.

Good question, son, good question.

April 19, 2012 at 8:45 amWe recently attended a revival at another church. As we sat waiting for the service to begin, women kept coming through the door with babies in their arms. I’m not talking 4 or 5 I am talking 25-30. One after another they just kept coming.
Conversation between my 20 year old daughter and my 15 year old daughter:
20 year old: MOM! Where are all these babies coming from?
15 year old: You see Briana…when a mommy and daddy love each other very much……
The entire room heard it and everyone started laughing. Briana (20 year old) was completely embarrassed and the 15 year old sat with a look of victory on her face! Not very often does she get one up on her sister. Even older children can fit into the category of “outta the mouths of babes.”
