Being a mom to two boys is always entertaining. I like to share some of my favorite quotes from my boys here so I can keep track of them and because they’re just plain funny. Here are a few recent ones that had me giggling.
From Biz, age 3. At the dinner table after my husband mentioned something that happened when G was in utero and then had to explain that “in utero” meant when he was in my tummy.
Biz: It was dark when I was in your tummy, Mommy.
Me: Oh yeah? You remember when you were in my tummy?
Biz: Yes. I remember the food bonking me in the head when I was in your tummy and you were eating.
(We might need to explain that they weren’t in my actual stomach at some point.)
From G, age 7. A conversation in the car after school. His class has been singing “Here Comes the Sun.”
G: Someone in my class brought in a picture of two of the guys who sing “Here Comes the Sun.”
Me: Cool. Which Beatles were in the picture? John Lennon and Paul McCartney?
G: I think so. I didn’t know you knew about the Beatles. Did you know one was shot?
Me: Yes.
G: Well, they were popular in the 1900s.
What funny things have your kids (or kids close to you) said lately?

In the 1900’s! That is too much!
Crazy, right?
Oh God, the “1900’s” – ack!
I love these, so funny!
It caught me off guard at first, but then I realized that he’s never lived in the “1900s.” So, he just sort of lumps the entire century into one.
I love the part about the food bonking him on the head! Sigh, my kids are a little too old to give me good quotes these days. Thanks for sharing yours!
You’re welcome, Mary. Biz comes up with some good ones. Sometimes I wish I could mic him up.
omgoodness! So funny but it really makes me feel old to think that I lived in the 1900’s!
I know. I made me feel old too.
So cute!
Thanks!
