Kids Say The Darndest Things!

 
Sometimes it's good to take a break from "all things serious" ... I do that by spending time around kids.  They have a way of bringing out the kid in me.  I am always amused by the last cute thing they have said ... and occasionally, I am awed by the profound wisdom that their wide open view of the world sometimes provides!
 
 
Why God made MOMS?
 
Why God made MOMS answers given by elementary school aged children to the following questions:
 
Why did God make Mothers?
  1. She's the only one who knows where the scotch tape is.
  2. Mostly to clean up the house.
  3. To help us out of there when we are getting born.
How did God make Mothers?
  1. Magic plus super powers plus A LOT of stirring.
  2. God made my Mom just the same like He made me.  He just got bigger parts.
  3. God makes mothers out of clouds and angel hair and everything nice in the world and one dab of MEAN.
Why did God give you your Mother and not some other Mom?
  1. We're related.
  2. God knew she likes me a lot more than other people's Moms like me.
What kind of little girl was your Mom?
  1. My Mom has always been a Mom and none of that other stuff.
  2. I don't know because I wasn't there, but my guess is that she was pretty bossy.
  3. They say she used to be nice.
Why did your Mom marry your Dad?
  1. My Dad makes the best spaghetti in the world ... And my Mom eats a lot.
  2. She got too old to do anything else with him.
  3. My Grandma says that Mom didn't have her thinking cap on.
Who's the boss at your house?
  1. Mom doesn't want to be boss, but she has to because Dad's such a goofball.
  2. Mom.  You can tell by room inspection.  She sees the stuff under the bed.
  3. I guess Mom is, but only because she has a lot more to do than Dad.
What's the difference between Moms and Dads?
  1. Moms work at work & work at home, and Dads just go to work at work.
  2. Moms know how to talk to teachers without scaring them.
  3. Dads are taller and stronger, but Moms have the real power 'cause that's who you got to ask if you want to sleep over at your friend's.
  4. Moms have magic, they make you feel better without medicine.
What does your Mom do in her spare time?
  1. Mothers don't do spare time.
What would it take to make your Mom perfect?
  1. On the inside she is already perfect.  Outside, I think some kind of plastic surgery.
If you could change one thing about your Mom, what would it be?
  1. She has this weird thing about keeping my room clean.  I'd get rid of that.
  2. I'd make my Mom smarter.  Then she would know it was my sister who did it and not me.
  3. I would like for her toget rid of those invisible eyes in the back of her head.
