Kids say the funniest things

To take an example from Aimee's blog, kids say the funniest things.

This past weekend, I was at Home Deopt with Emory for some boy time. We were looking for some rope, and were walking down the gardening isle. There was a woman with her daughter looking at shovels; She had short hair and was wearng a hat. We were the only people in the isle, and as we walk by Emory looks at this woman and says very loud:

"Daddy, what is that man doing?"

I sped up a little, and as we got past her, she looked at us sideways and Emory says again, this time a little louder in case I did not hear him the first time, "what is that MAN doing Daddy".

Then, yesterday, Andrea was doing some work downstairs and Emory, Lily and I were upstairs. Our gate was closed and Emory wanted to go see mama. I told him that mommy would be up soon and he blurts out, "I have been waiting for mama for 2 times already!"

Lastly, Emory was 'petting' me with a cardboard wrapping paper roll last night and I asked him to stop and so, naturally, he did it again. I took the roll from him and put it out of reach. He got upset, and then, after some coaxing, he asked nicely for it. Before handing it too him, I asked him if he was going to hit daddy with it...."No" was his reply...learning from my past mistakes, I asked him what he is going to do with it..."Hit Mommy" was his reply.

Gotta love kids!
