Hi Friend! I'm so happy you dropped in! Pull up a chair and pour yourself a hot cup of coffee, tea or cocoa.

There is nothing better than to visit with friends around the table with a good hot drink on these cool fall days and evenings. For those of you that has been here before, you already know my favorite topic is our children and the funny things they say and do. It's so much fun compareing notes of funny experiences with other parents, grandparents and anyone else that enjoy children as much as we do. For those of you that are first time visitors. We take turns telling our stories.

LYNNETTE STARTS OFF WITH A SWEET STORY THAT WON'T BRING A CHUCKLE OR A BIG LAUGH. BUT, IT IS GUARANTEED TO WARM YOUR HEART AND BRING A BIG SMILE:

When my grandson was in the first grade one of his classmates father passed away. The little girl missed him so much and was not talking to anyone about it. The teacher was very concerned. One day she saw my grandson and the little girl sitting on a curb and the little girl expressed to him that she missed her daddy and he couldn't see her anymore. The teacher said my grandson put his arm around her shoulder and said: "It's ok, your daddy is an angel in heaven and he can see you right now. The teacher was so surprised that one so young could give comfort like that.

THIS IS A SWEETIE FROM DARLA:

My little girl, age 4, is the apple of her daddys eye.One day, she ask her daddy,"when I grow up, can we get married?" Her daddy explained to her that daddys and daddys little girls don't marry. Sweet little girls grow up, meet a little boy that has grown up, they fall in love and get married and have sweet little girls and boys of their own. My little girl didn't go for that at all! Here is her reply: "YUK!! I don't want to marry a BOY...boys are discusting"!!

FROM A NEW FRIEND OF THE WEB MARY:

One sunday evening at church we were ask to give a testimony on the wonderful things God has done for us in our lives. My 8 year old raised his hand and was called upon for his testimony, he said: "God was real good to me today, because our preacher didn't pray a long prayer like he usually does, because I prayed to God at the same time telling God that I was hungry, so he made our preacher cut his prayer short!"

MARY MADE ME REMEMBER ONE ABOUT MY NIECE:

My niece just barely 2 years old, coulden't say "sit" correctly. one sunday in church, when the congregation stood for prayer, my niece yells very loudley, for it was a large church. "Sh__, I can't see"!!

DONNA A GOOD WEB BUDDY SENT THIS ONE:

Our 5 year old daughter is kinda hyper and was not getting her conduct sticker at Pre-k. So I decided to cut back on her sugar and caffeine intake to see if that might help the problem. Then after about 2 weeks of this her conduct was improving some. One day her dad called from work and asked her if she had gotten her sticker today and she said: "Yes, daddy I did and now I can have alot of caffeine!

ANOTHER CUTE ONE FROM LYNNETTE:

When my daughter was about 3 years old we were talking about Heaven. We were out side and it was a cloudy day. She asked me where Heaven was and I pointed up to the sky and said most people say up there is Heaven. Her reply was " I don't want to go up there! it is messy!" She was referring to those dark clouds in the sky!

FROM A MOM THAT WISHES TO REMAIN ANONYMOUS:

When My husband and I were married we were young. We eloped. I always wanted a big elaborate wedding in a beautiful church. On our third wedding anniversary we renewed our wedding vows and my dreams of a church wedding were fulfilled. Our three year old daughter was our flower girl. After the wedding our family and friends gave us a nice reception and paid for the care of our daughter at a local "drop in day care center." While I was registering my little girl into the center, she struck up a conversation with the lady behind the desk (she is not shy at all) the conversation went like this: "My mommy and my daddy FINALLY got married! Now my mommy is FINALLY my daddies wife and my daddy is FINALLY my mommies husband and you know what? They are STILL going to be happy!"

HERE IS ONE ABOUT MY SON:

When my oldest son was only 2 years old,he was already showing signs of being a talented artist. To show how an artist's mind thinks, just read the conversation between me and my son. We lived in Colorado where the mountains are rugged. My little boy kept asking me, "Mommy, why did God break the mountains?" I told him, "Honey, God didn't break the mountains, see? they're still standing." He informed me that God broke the tops off the mountains. I gave him drawing paper and crayons and asked him to draw me a pretty picture of a mountain before the mountain got broke. He drew me a perfect Plateau! He was referring to the jagged parts at the top of the mountains when we see the mountains from a distance. In his precious mind, "everything" should be smooth and even.

A COUPLE CUTIES FROM OUR FRIEND MARE:

I love Mel Gibson. When my daughter was young (about 2 years old) & every time he appeared on the TV screen I would yell "Look! There's your real father!" Well, when she started kindergarten, one day, her father dropped her off at school. Her friends asked, "Is that your father?" And she replied, "Yeah. But he's not my real father. My real father is Mel Gibson," lol I was horrified when the teacher asked to talk to me after class (but she enjoyed the humor.)

The Little Mermaid Story:

I like Mermaids. In my bathroom was a very seductive picture of a mermaid sitting on a rock in the middle of the ocean. Ironically, the mermaid resembled me (not the body, of course...but having the long brown hair). (Well, you know kids encourage our imagination as adults...anyway), I told my kids the picture was me as a little girl. And that "The Little Mermaid" was a story based upon my life as a child-lol. The kids asked how I got my legs & I told them that God granted a prayer. They were very curious about what I did with my fins & I told them that I donated them to science. Well! Who would've thought they believed me! My son brought the Mermaid picture to school for show-n-tell and told all his friends that it was my childhood picture. Needless to say, I was called to the school the very next day to explain myself & to the children of the class. - lol

THIS IS A CUTE ONE:

One of the sweet little girls I care for, age 4, soon to be 5, was concerned about our mommy kittie passing on. I explained to her that "mommy kittie was very old and it was time for her to go to kittie heaven and rest." She looked at me with tears in her precious little eyes and said: "You are very old, is it time for you to go to babysitters heaven and rest?" I then explained to her that "people live longer than animals and I will still be around when she grows up and has a baby of her own, so I will be able to help her take care of her little baby." Her response to that one was, "Whew, I was worried about that!"

I'LL BE HAPPY TO FINISH THIS PAGE WITH ONE LAST STORY ABOUT MY OWN CHILDREN :)

One evening I was getting ready to go to a Thanksgiving dinner compliments of the company I was working for. My children were watching me in awe while I was applying my make up and fixing my hair. This was back in the middle 60's when we "back combed" or "teased" our hair to make it "poof". So Picture this. Here I am with my hair all teased out looking like a rats nest, and I am applying conceler to hide certain flaws, a line here and a dot there all over my face. My 3 year old ask, "what are you doing mom!?" I told him I was getting ready for a party at work. He wanted to know if it was still halloween and if I was going to go as an Indian warrior!
