Opposites

My daughter says some wacky stuff.
She's almost four, very verbal and has no filter, which means either knee-slapping hilarity or mortifying public announcements.


I've decided to start blogging about some of her statements (with an accompanying photo of course) - partly to remember it and partly so you can laugh (or cry) along with me. God surely has a sense of humor and some of it spills out in the things kids say.


I'm calling this series:

... so if you see these posts spring up once in a while, get ready to hear pearls of wisdom come forth.

Today's Topic: Opposites

Last week, Naomi was practicing the concept of "opposites" at the breakfast table.


Naomi: Mommy, I'm big and Noelle is small..that's opposites right?
Me (with some pride): Yeah, you're right, good job! 
Naomi: Yeah, like how Daddy is tall....and you're....you're FAT! Is that opposites too Momma?
Me:.....
Naomi: Mommy mommy, is that opposites?!
Me: haha (fake laugh).. no, you mean Mommy is shorter than Daddy right? That's an opposite. And don't call people fat, that's not nice.
Naomi: Why?
Me: Because it's rude. Eat your breakfast.

Have a great week everyone, and remember, 
it's all fun and games until someone uses the F word.

  1. Ha ha! Thanks for the laugh today. Allie has gone through something similar and has since amended the F word with "big". Not sure if that's much better tho.
