“You have to turn the handle before you can open the door.” As the words came out of my mouth, I knew they were strange. What a weird thing to say. Why would I ever have to say that to someone? Isn’t that common sense? (Of course, I did have to say it after my 5 year old ran straight into the door.) I found myself thinking about of a lot of things that I have had to say that I never thought I would…
“You can’t show people your underwear. I don’t care if they are Transformers or Spongebob. It’s just not a good idea.”
“Don’t put that around your neck.”
“What made you think your head would fit in there?”
“Can everyone please stop peeing on the floor!!!”
“I don’t know what happened to Atlantis. No one knows what happened to it. No, we are never traveling to the Bermuda Triangle anytime soon. You have nothing to worry about. I am not sure if Adam and Eve lived at the same time as the dinosaurs…we’ll look it all up in the morning.” (Sure, I thought I would answer questions for my children…I just didn’t think I would be answering them all at 2 in the morning.)
“Who put a thumbtack in my exercise ball???” (Okay, okay, I wasn’t really using it anyway.)
“Don’t drink your bath water!!! Your butt and Kyle’s butt are both in there! Do you really want to drink butt water?”
“How did you get that so far up your nose?” (It was the smallest, single peg square Lego, in case you were wondering.)
“If you are going to throw up, try to make it to the bathroom.” (I say the same thing to the cats with the same result!)
“You have to dry off before you put your clothes on.”
“Put your shoes and coat on….. Put your shoes and coat on….. Put your shoes and coat on….. Put your shoes and coat on…. Put your shoes and coat on…..” (I know this is not a strange thing to say. I am just amazed that I have to say it so many times.)
“Umm, your pants are on backwards…and inside out.”
Does anyone have anything to add????? Please add them below. J
