From the mouth's of babes...

Here are a few funny things my kids have said recently:

A cute story from Flag Football:

Colby was playing flag football the other day. Curtis was coaching him from the sideline. At a critical point in the game (as critical as flag football for 3 yr olds gets), Curtis called Colby over, pointed to the other kid's flag (which was mostly hidden by his t-shirt) and told Colby what to do to be able to grab it. He said "Colby, you need to run straight towards him as fast as you can and as you're approaching him, just dive for it, okay? Dive for it!"

Colby thought for a moment, and with a sad, and very somber face, he said to Curtis, "But I don't want to go to Heaven yet, Daddy."

Paisley explaining to Colby in the backseat of the car how a lollipop got it's name:

Paisley: Oh, I know! I know! It's called a "lolli" because it smells like "lolli, lolli, lolli" which means "Good" in an old-fashioned kind of way. Ya know?

Colby: Yes.

Paisley: And it's called pop because it makes this noise when you eat it (she makes it pop very softly on the inside of her cheek).

Colby: Wow. How did you do that?

Paisley: You'll learn when you get older. It's something you grow into when you're 5.

Colby: Oh.

Another conversation from the backseat of the car:

Colby: I quit.

Paisley: No, you can't quit. Shoch's can't quit.

Colby: Yes I can.

Paisley: No! The Shoch's aren't quitters.

Colby: Well, I am now.

Paisley: You can never, ever quit. Not if you are a Shoch. That's not something we do.

Colby: Uh-huh. I am going to be the first one.

Paisley: That is impossible. Not if you are a Shoch. You just can't do it. It's not ever something you can do. Okay? Just forget about it.

Colby: Watch me.
