Much of what you would overhear in my house could be summed up under the title of: "Out of the mouths of babes..." or "Holy crap, your kid said what?!"
*14y/o last year: "My teacher laughed at me today"
Me: "Oh mercy, what for?"
14y/o: "She asked me to read out loud and I told her I can't read, I'm anorexic"
Me: "Dyslexic?" (which he's not btw)
14y/o: "whatever."
*17y/o: "What is the mafia?"
Me: "You know, like the mob?"
17y/o: "What's the mob?"
Me: "You know the Sopranos?"
17y/o: "the people that sing really high?"
*13y/o: "Mom, your breath smells like hot frog legs on a bed of wild mice"
*Ex-husb: "I keep getting things from the hospital. Yesterday I got a 700 dollar bill"
14y/o: "There's such a thing as a 700 dollar bill?! Is it real??"
*I told the 14y/o to shovel a path to the oil spout on the back of the house because the delivery guy was coming.
14y/o: "How big does it need to be?"
Me: "Big enough for the guy to walk through it"
14y/o: "How fat is the delivery guy?"
Just because I have a small love affair with wine:
*13y/o: Mom, can you help me with my math when you're done pouring your Cup of Joy?
*11y/o: Mom are you drinking wine?
13y/o: She drinks wine all the time, wine is like her best friend.

Welcome to my life.
I love your post, mostly because I can relate. I have teenagers too. Sometimes it's funny and sometimes it's a whole other Circle of Hell. Thanks for sharing the funny!
ReplyDelete"Circle of Hell'! I love that, it's so accurate! Once I had teenagers I stopped complaining about the 'Terrible Two's'.
DeleteLOL!! Your kids are really funny!!
ReplyDeleteYeah, sometimes Lol
Delete"Mom, your breath smells like hot frog legs on a bed of wild mice," Congratulations on the creativity of your children! I hope they can use it for more than just insults but if they can't, it's still pretty cool.
ReplyDeleteHaha thanks! I encourage creativity, but sometimes it comes back to bite me in the butt.
DeleteHahaha ... ROFL!
ReplyDeleteAnorexia and Cup of Joy and Sopranos! My kind of party!!!

ReplyDeleteI figure that's what he gets for trying to get out of reading! And the more Cups of Joy the merrier!

Hey, somebody's got to be it right? Thanks so much for reading and following, I'm heading over to return the favor :)
DeleteOh God there are so many things here I love! Frog legs on a bed of mice? Anorexic/dyslexic? But my fave line--wine as your "cup of joy". Brilliant!
ReplyDeleteI am so not telling her that everybody loves her 'description', it will go right to her head!
DeleteLOL!!! 'How fat is the delivery guy?' Haha, your kids are funny!!!
ReplyDeleteHe wanted to make sure he didn't shovel any extra!
DeleteHee hee... I like the dyslexic one... ;-)
ReplyDeleteHe's a goof, that one ;)
DeleteHow fat is the delivery guy? That is priceless! I loved it all! My favorite story, was the anorexic/dyslexic comment. Your kids are hilarious :)
