Do you know the meaning of exaggerate?

1 Comment

My friend Tiffany P submitted this installment of  “Crazy things Kids Say.” Her son Nicholas is such a smart and witty little guy!

So I say to Nicholas yesterday: “Please don’t exaggerate, do you know what that word means buddy? For example don’t use your fake cry…I think you are really hurt. it scares mommy.”

Than Nicholas bluntly tells me:  “Actually mommy to exaggerate means to sprinkle little lies onto the truth”

…..my witty boy

Thank you Tiffany for letting me post! If you have something funny that your kid has said to share with us, please email me at lesa(at)lesasgoods(dot)com

 

Lunch Questions by Bubby

Leave a comment

I haven’t done any posts for Crazy Things Kids Say in a while. However, today’s lunch discussion deserved a post.

While eating lunch today, Bubby asked the following question: “Mommy, why do we call sandwiches sandwiches? They are not made from sand or witches.”

So I replied the same thing I always reply when it involves language and I am stumped: “Because English is a funny language. Now eat your food.”
