Title: Kids say the darndest things
Post by: Shasta56 on April 27, 2012, 04:10:40 PM
Yesterday was "Take your kids to work day."  My older three grandkids went to work at the hospital with my daughter.  The hospital CEO asked my grandson what his mom does there.  Donovan replied, "She catches the nurses that are stealing drugs."  She's the narc tech in the pharmacy, and tracks narcotic usage and diversion.  Rowan and Shannon regaled the staff with tales of emergency room escapades involving swallowed pennies.  Shannon had to outdo Rowan by claiming that she swallowed a penny, and pooped a quarter.  I never knew it was that easy to make money.

Thanks for posting this Shasta! Kids can be so funny at times and situations. One of the "great things" about young kids, is that their thought processes haven't been defiled by "all of the stuff yet", and can just speak from their minds and hearts! I still have very young grandkids, so we still get to hear some pretty choice stuff too.


Recently I saw one "quoted" statement from a child that really struck me. A group of kids were asked "what does love mean to you"? A six year girl replied, "If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who you hate". Now, that is a powerful statement, at any age, but very surprising for a six year old.

I got an anatomy lesson from my two year old granddaughter this afternoon.  Cami:  "I have nipples.  You have boobs."
