13 Best Kid Quotes

When I was pregnant, everyone said, “Kids grow up too fast.” They also said, “kids say the darndest things.” I vowed to make it last as long as I could by recording the best of the things they said. So, instead of a yearly brag letter about us at Christmas Time — I put a list of our favorite kid quotes from the year on the card. I think it says more about our family than any brag letter ever could. Here’s 13:

1. Mom, did you know that you’re older than Jesus? He died at 33.
2. You don’t need to hold my Hand mom, I won’t fly away – it’s not that windy.
3. Did Santa bring this? Why does it say “Made in China.”
4. Do you know why we have to use these tiny screwdrivers to change the batteries in toys? Elves.
5. “Can I use some of your money? I’m tired of using mine.”
6. “Guess how much this Bionicle costs?” “100 dollars?” “Nope. 100 bucks.”
7. “I used to have crooked teeth. But then I lost them, so now I don’t have that problem anymore.”
8. “Mom, I can’t wear that. Everyone would say, what happened to your coolness.”
9. “I figured out what ’just a minute’ means — No.”
10. Let’s go on a hay ride. “What kind of animal is a hay?”
11. “Is it OK to jump off the top of the tree house?”
12. How about a break from piano lessons? “yeah, a long one.”
13. “My Dad goes to work to drink Apple Juice and to color.”
