These are too funny to me, not to document somewhere. See, my 6-year old, Ian, says some pretty funny things. We're starting to have real converstations with him, which is something new. By real conversations, I mean two-sided interactions where my wife and I can actually gain some peice of information from the interaction. What I learned yesterday is that you can't always trust his account. Take this conversation he had with my wife:
Her: So you went to the grocery store with Brendan?
Ian: Yes. And guess who we saw?
Her: Who?
Ian: Bob!
(now keep in mind that Bob's not married)
Her: Cool, what did he have to say.
Ian: Um. I think his daughter's pregnant.
(now, I was there, and I have no idea where this came from)
Her: Really? I didn't know he had a daughter, or a wife for that matter.
Ian: Yes, his daughter's pregnant. Mom, I have a question:
Her: Okay, shoot.
Ian: You know that new pregnant Barbie doll?
Her: Yes.
Ian: What kind of baby is she going to have?
Her: Well, I don't know, we'll have to wait and see, won't we?
Ian: Hmmm. Maybe she'll have Spongebob.
