Kid Kwip-Dead Deer

This past Sunday my mom, sister and I took the kids to a pumpkin patch. On the way there, we passed a large doe, sprawled on the side of the highway with it's tongue hanging out, clearly the victim of a hit and run. It prompted this conversation in the back of the car:

"Ooooooo! Gross! Did you see that dead deer?"

"Ooooooo! Gross! Yuck!"

"Wait........maybe it was just passed out?"

Kid Kwip-Combed Your Hair Lately?

For some reason, most of my kid kwips come from Kylee. Perhaps it's her matter-of-fact way of observing the world that only a 6-year old has. Here's another one:

Yesterday afternoon I stopped at Walmart to pick up a few things. Just as we were walking away from the register, Kylee offered this observation -

"Hey Mom, it looks like that girl never combs her hair."

She was referring to the cashier who had helped us. The funniest thing was that Kylee was right. At least she waited until we were leaving to voice her opinion!

Kylee: "Mom, are you on a diet?"

Me: "No."

Kylee: (pause) "Then why do you drink Diet Coke?"

Kid Kwip #1-2

My kids say some funny stuff a lot of days that just leave me shaking my head and laughing to myself. So, I'm going to start posting them when I remember. Here's a couple from the past few days, both from Kylee:

1. (As we're cleaning her room) "Mom, just because it's inside out doesn't mean it's dirty. It just means you tried it on to see if it still fits."
2. (Today, while playing outside in 85+ degree weather, after she asked if I would fix grilled cheese for lunch)

Me: "Are you sure you want something hot for lunch when it's so hot outside?"

Kylee: "Mom - We're starving and cold!"
