Out of the mouths of babes

Sometimes, when I hear the things my children say at home, I wonder what they are saying in public, when I am not around. Do we REALLY want to know? Here are some recent comments

Kaila: "Today at school, we didn't have the usual straws for milk."
Me: "Well, what kind of straws did you have?"
Kaila: "You know, the kind that gets put in whiskey drinks"

Or, we have Lexi's recent announcement.

Lexi: "When I get married, I am going to need one of those white wedding dresses. Mine is going to need a big belly in it."
Me: "Why are you going to need a dress with a big belly?"
Lexi: "Because there's going to be a baby in my belly when I get married!"

Wow. Don't say we weren't warned! We can only wonder what the school thinks of Kaila's knowlege of the proper drink accessories!

Joe also recently had a revelation...

Joe: " I did not come from your belly, Mom."
Me: "Where did you come from, then?"
Joe: "The factory made me."
Me: "Then how did you get here from the factory?"
Joe: "The garbage truck brought me."

Wonder if it's too late to have a say in the current factory order?
