My personal favorite true story..:))
One afternoon on my shady deck in North Carolina, we had our little grandson, Kyle, then about 10 months old, by us in his playpen.
Big sister, Aubrey, just 3, came out holding one of her favorite toys -
a radio-like pretend tv screen that when wound up,
had characters moving across the screen.
It had "died," obviously after Kyle had bashed it against something.
With a most serious face, remembering he had come from the hospital, she said to us:
"Can we take him back?"
I think we got the wrong baby!!!"
Still brings gales of laughter, remembering her expression and quiet disappointment -
and her thoughtful solution..:)

A prior Pastor of mine's son...7 years young, came up with this touching sentiment one which I share with others often because what he said took me by moved to joyful surprise.
We were just casually chatting. He already knew that my Fave animal is a rabbit. We started telling eachother some jokes. So when he asked me "Why did the rabbit cross the road?" I thought he'd come back with something simplistic and new & funny to a youngster but so old and not funny to an adult but I was ready to laugh out of love for the youngsters attempt at telling an old to me but new to him joke.
His sweet answer was:"To get to You!" I gasped and hugged and thanked him for saying that to/about me...Now,every opportunity I get since then I share with others this to/about him!

Thanks for the smiles and chuckles, dutchess. This thread gave me a lift today that I really needed.
Hugs to you, sistah. Have a wonderful day.

Dutches ....... Wow .... What a cute thread. Two days in a row .... kids and pets, what could be cuter?
I haven't been able to access Fotki this morning so I'll not post a picture. :(
A couple of weeks ago, PrissyMissy asked me "Why does Grampa have fur on his chest?"
Yesterday she told me she got "staged scared" at her dance lesson.
It is going to be another busy day here; I hope to get back sometime this afternoon.

KEWL dutchess!
I got a compliment (I think) from grandson Logan a few weeks ago. It was one of those round-about compliments.
He was sitting here at the 'puter playing some games at Disney.com. After loading one, the instruction page came up. Unable to read, he holler out for mrsdd... "Nanny, read!"
Sitting nearby, I came over and began to read the text to him.
Hollering out again, he said, "Never mind, Nanny. Poppy knows how to read it."

Hi, Amy! Isn't this the cutest thread?! Prissy's "fur on his chest" comment about Mr.Amy is priceless!
Dutchess, I know you were counting on John's Two Cents, and in a pinch you have the Celebrate Life, or more of your cute animal pics and quotes we haven't seen to fall back on, but this one was a total surprise and totally cute!
Hope your morning with the *kids* was great!

Did someone say we can post photos of our grandkids??? I just happen to have some recent photos of them!
They are all the time saying the darndest things, but nothing comes to mind at the moment. Bet if I asked their parents, they could come up with some real doozies. LOL.
