The honesty of children isn't always pretty!!

[happyWImom]

This morning I was hugging & kissing dd on her cheek, and she says "Ow! Something felt prickly" then she gets up close and stares at my face and says "You have some black hairs growing there-are you growing a moustache!!??" Kind of an eye opener. Guess it's time to wax.:tongue_smilie:

Ah, the honesty. So delightfully refreshing. My dd loves to tell me and anyone who will listen about my squishy belly.

Oh dear.

 

Sounds like my dd5 who was just reading a human body book in the car and says "Ooh Mama, here ya go. It says when you consume more calories than you burn, the calories turn into fat and are stored...."

 

I didn't even listen to the rest.:glare:

 

Merci.

I had to explain to my son that he should never EVER EVER discuss a woman's weight or facial hair in public. There was a mom at school that looked remarkably similar to a man. For the longest time Drew would ask his friend if their dad was going to pick them up and when their mom showed up he would scowl and tell me they were liars. When I found out what was going on (he argued with the kids about whether or not she was their mom), I explained that some women DO grow facial hair and it is very cruel to point that out. Then I told him to ask himself if he thinks someone KNOWS about an issue with their body/face, before he decides to point it out to them.

The little dears--God bless 'em!!! My 6yods just went over with me his favorite catechists from his Thursday class, in order of most favorite to least favorite. Guess who came in last, at third favorite...his own mother!!! :001_huh:

You mean, when your nearly 7yo dd asks you if makeup hides "boo-boos" on your face, and you say "yes" and she says, "You must need a LOT":D

dd3 was asking why the Grinch is green, and I made a big deal about how he is green b/c he is mean, and grumpy. Her next question was: "Why are your eyes green, Mommy?" :001_huh: I just LAUGHED! "It's my inner-Grinch sweetie.":D:lol:

 

ETA: My favorite - I was standing beside ds5 helping him with penmanship and he just plugged his nose. He didn't say a WORD - just held that little nose tight.......Then a few minutes later he asked me if I had to drink so much coffee before we do school?:lol: I guess he doesn't like coffee breath.:ack2:

Check out my avitar. My oldest drew that when she was 4 and I was ranting and raving one day. She came up to me and said, "Here Mommy, this is you. You have angry hair." And then she walked away.

 

I Hate it when they're right!

"Mommy, if the baby is growing in your tummy and making your front big what is making your bottom so big?"

Ds10 recently informed his little brothers that Mommy is older than Daddy. MY 5yo won't stop telling everyone we know, from dear friends to neighbors to the cookie lady at the bakery. :glare:

When my dd was 2 or 3 she fell down. I picked her up and kissed her owie and said the usual, "There, mommy kissed it. All better!" (it wasn't a very big owie.) She looked up and said, "No, NOT all better! That didn't help at ALL!":ohmy: :sad: Wha....I thought kids believed that stuff! :tongue_smilie:

Hmmm to many honest comments around here

 

When dd was about 7 she was playing hair dresser with my hair, and said "mom your hair is awesome!" so I thought she was paying me a compliment and said "really? thank you" she says "yeah it's gold at the bottom and silver at the top". I had been growing out the strawberry blond dye job I had and trying to get my hair back to normal, apparently the greys were showing.

 

Or my my ds5 telling the dr I was having another baby. When I corrected him and said no I wasn't, he pokes me in the belly and says "then why is your tummy big like a baby is in there"

 

Or my oldest ds when he was about 6, saw me plucking some facial hairs, and then proceeded to tell everyone he saw that I had wiskers like his Poppa.

 

Grrr, nothing is off limits with kids.
