My son and myself and one other person were at a restaraunt eating. Andrew (my son) was just learning how to wink, and was pretty good at it. I and our friend were facing Andrew when I noticed him winking. At first I thought it was me he was winking at and winked back he was only about 3 at the time. A short time later he did it again and I noticed he was looking beyond me. There was a table behind me that he could see and I had to turn around to see. I didn't want to turn around and be flat out obvious so I waited until I was ready to go to the Buffet to see who was behind me. Andrew continued to wink at whomever this person was so I figured they were winking back or gesturing him on in some way. I decided to make a move and as I stood up I turned and about fell in the floor. The gentleman sitting at the table behind us facing Andrew only had one eye and the lost eye was just a skin covered socket. I didn't want to laugh but ALMOST failed miserably. I continued to the Bar as if nothing had happened and returned to the table and stopped Andrew from winking by telling him to leave the gentleman alone and let him eat. Talking about from the mouths of babes. Kids always bring some kinda funny memories. I wanted to share this one and would love to hear some of yours. By the way I truly believe the man understood Andrew didn't know what exactly was going on and was just being a young child. It still stumbled me up some.

haha kids... heres one.
we were outside on 4th of july. it was dark, we were watching the fireworks across town from our carport while the kids did those snappops.. we had the bug zapper on. suddenly it goes off.. for a LONG time.... someone says something about it being a lizzard to which my teenager pops off "Gecko for Dinner".. at which time my 6 year old daughter says "but we already had dinner".... talk about ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.........
PD, thanks for sharing this very amusing story with us, but hope you know that it probably made that man's whole day for your son to be doing that. My sister is handicapped and she tells me she would rather someone just come out and ask her what is wrong then just to either ignore her disablity or stare like some do.....she seems to find it extremely easy when children ask her why her arm is "messed up" or why she isn't walking like them....
Well, this one is rather embarrassing......but here goes.
Early one afternoon, my boyfriend and I were having some "alone time". I had forgotten that the kids were getting out of school early that day and did not hear my son come in the house. He was only 8 years old at the time. Anyhow, he comes walking down the hallway and stops at my bedroom door....which was open. All of a sudden, I hear "So is that sex or what?"
Funny. I have shared this before but it emphaises how great kids are.
When my middle daughter was in the 1st grade I was traveling to Japan frequently on business. One morning she asked me "dad how far is it to Japan? I said honey it is very very far away. She asked "does it take a long time to get there? I said "yes Honey it takes a very long time. By the way honey, why do you ask?
She said "well dad there is this girl in my class that comes from Japan and she is in school everyday and is always on time for the bell
She is 28 now with two daughters of her own and I told her to always write down what your kids say like this, because they will be priceless to you in the years to come and I regret that I have forgotten so much and so many of those true gems that came from all of my children's mouths.
Gotta love kids!
