John quotes @ 4.5 years old



John: can grandmas drive or are they too old?

Mom: they can drive.  Both your grandmas drive.

John: well they don't have any stuff.

Mom: stuff?  

Alice: what do you mean, Don?

John: well, they don't need any stuff to stand up or walk.

Mom: stuff?

John: no staff!  They don't need any staff.  They can stand and walk without a staff.


I found John crying in the dark in his room.  He had wet his pants a bit and was scared.  I took him to the potty and changed him.  He told me "mommy, I'm scared there are monsters under my bed."

I gave him the pistol I bought at the Alamo gift shop.  He had been playing with it nonstop for a few days.  I recalled seeing an old Gary Larsen Farside comic and was inspired.

"Well, I bet that the monster under the bed is scared that there might be a boy with a gun on top of the bed."

He chuckled and cuddled under the covers with his trusty pistol.


Chris:  I'd like to stay awake for dinner.  I haven't eaten anything real all day.  Stupid airplane food.

John: I like stupid airplane food.


John:I need to go potty

Geo: then go potty!

John: mmm

Geo:  sorry, I don't speak monkey.

John: you can't tell me what to do!!!
