When my son was little, he frequently got car sick so we kept Children's Mylanta with us. One day, he was sick and throwing up and he asked me, so pitifully, if he could have "some of yours lanta". I guess he had always thought it was "my lanta" Miss those sweet things.

My son used to pronounce a V instead of W. When he was 3, He was playing at his grandmothers one day, helping her in the garden and almost caught an earthworm. As it retreated from his grasp back into its hole he asked, " vere da vorm vent ?" ! Now he's almost 28, he just loves it when I tell people that story.

I was driving by a chicken house when my son was about three years old. A few chickens were sitting in the windows and my son said, "look mama there's some chicklin and dunklins." We still call it that when I make chicken and dumplings.

My little boy used to pronounce his "v's" as "b's". My favorites were "glubs" for gloves. And festible instead of festival.

My daughter when small could not say refrigerator so she said 'frigelator." Very cute. No problem. Knew exactly what she was talking about!

My husband used to take a migraine preventative daily and his alarm on his phone would go off when it was time. The kids got used to it and would tell him to take his medicine. One day we wete in walmart and his alarm went off. Our youngest was 3 at the time and he announced it was time for daddy's medicine. My husband didn't have it with him and told him so. Our son dissolved into tears, screaming "daddy you have to take your medicine! Something bad will happen! Please take it!!!" Needless to say, people immediately left the aisle pulling their kids with them. It was horrible but hilarious!

My oldest daughter was 4 at the time, and we had made Jello. She was ready to eat it right away and I told her it had to go into the fridge until it had set up. She asked how would we know and I said by poking it with a finger.


An hour later she came running to me yelling she had "poked the Jello and it was upset!"

My son came home from church kindergarten and had to go to the toilet. His grandmother opened the door to see if he was all right. He told her to get the M.. Fk..lelh out of there. She about had a stroke. When my wife asked him where he heard such talk he told us that his classmate, Chad, always said that if someone came in on him.


Wasn't cute at the time. Still isn't; however, everytime I think of that little 4 year old saying that to his '"oh! so proper grandmother" I still chuckle.
