Kids say the darndest things - First Installment

So, this installment comes from a mother (who shall remain nameless) - lets call her Brookalina and her daughter, who, for the purpose of this blog, will be named Califlower. (anyone who knows me, absolutely knows who this story is about - Lol!)

Moving on. . .
So, Califlower is three - and is absolutley adorable - you can't help but instantly love her. And - her story basically has three sections - over the course of a single weekend, on a trip to Las Vegas. Lets begin, - and if you pee when you laugh, hop up , Mabel, and go get your Depends!

1. Brookalina needs to use the bathroom - and miracle beyond all miracles - she enters the rest room ALONE! so, she sits down to pee, and they appear. Ten little fingers under the crack where the door almost meets the ground. To which, she chuckles a little. But then, her sweet little 3 year old says from behind the door, "Mommy, do you see all my wieners?!" Aren't we all so glad we spend the time to teach our children anatomy?!!

2. Brookalina takes Califlower into one of the very upscale bathrooms in one of Vegas's nicer establishments. You know, the ones where someone is waiting to hand you a hand towel and mint after you wash your hands? Any hoo, once they enter the rest room, Brookalina, realizes that she too, probably ought to go and survey the situation, because, Aunt Flow is in town this week. So, she has Califlower in the stall with her, and sits to use the rest room. As she does this, she sees that it is a good thing she is there, because, its time to make the switch - so much so, that there is a little evidence of Aunt Flow on her girlie laundry. When Califlower notices the small stain, she screams, "EWW! Mommy! You poopy in your panties!" to which Brookalina instantly hushes, saying, "no, honey, its just an owie. Shh!" and Califlower continues shouting, "no mommy, look! you have P-O-O-P-Y on your panties! Yucky mommy, yucky!" And, Brookalina, just sits there, and wonders how long she can possibly stay hidden in that stall. Can she stay there until every last woman has left? How about until the lady at the front changes shifts? No, she must exit now, before Califlower crawls out from under the stall from boredom, and makes another three year old scene! Kids say the darndest things! thanks for the laugh, Brookalina. We have all been there, on some level or another. . .
3. Brookalina and her husband and kids are walking through Caesars Palace, enjoying a weekend in Las Vegas. Brookalina's husband, Rudy, is carrying Califlower on his shoulders. They notice Califlower is pointing to several things as they walk along, until she finally shouts, "Oh my gosh, look at all these wieners!" as she points to the statues that line the top of Caesars Palace.

  1. funny story. we've had to start referring to Jack's manhood as his "privates" b/c he has embarrassed me one too many times in public with his vocalization of his body parts/functions.
