Out of the Mouth of Babes.....

Some of Seth's sayings of late:

When he doesn't want to do something, he says.......


"I can't, my feet won't let me."


"My mouth won't stop talking."

or...


"My eyes won't stop crying!"

When he really wants to do something, he says....


"But mom, my trucks really want me!"

or after he's been off the computer for a while (because of peeing his pants, usually)....


"The computer really wants me, mom!"

When asked where his "headache" hurts (because I'm a smart mom), he says.....


"In my belly." (most common location), but also....


"In my muscles." (which are actually his armpits, but he thinks they're muscles)

And my favourite....

When complaining that his "feelings" hurt, I asked him to show me where, so he pointed to his.....

Belly Button


What can I say. He definitely makes life interesting.

my favorite one is his headache and hurt feelings...good luck with reasoning with him when he is a teen. did i mention that i think you should go back to school now while you have the chance? you are definately going to need the psychology degree with him!

Hailey's complaint was always, "My tummy hurts" until she was sent home "sick" from school one day. I made her stay in bed all day, since she was "sick". She hasn't pulled that one in a loooooong time! Now, it's just plain, "I don't know..."

Yeah, Seth is definitely having a lot of "headaches" lately. I'll have to keep some of these ideas in mind should they continue.
