Here is the post you have all been waiting for. I like to delude myself into thinking that people are interested in my emotional ramblings and artistic endeavors, but I really know that everyone is just waiting for some more funny kid quotes. 
From a 3 yr. old while saying goodbye to me:
3 yr. old: “I like your eyeball.”
Me: “Thanks.”
3 yr. old: “I want to eat it.”
Ummmm. OK.
Conversation with a 3 yr. old:
3 yr. old: “Do you like to be alone?”
Me: “Sometimes. Do you like to be alone?”
3 yr. old: “Ummm, only if there is someone with me.”
Conversation with a 3 yr. old:
Me: “What do you want to be when you grow up?”
3 yr. old: “A fireman.”
Me: “Oh - are you going to fight fires and stuff?”
3 yr. old, upon getting a terrified look up on his face, “Nooooo. I’m going to be a pretend fireman.”
Noble profession, that.
Conversation with a 5 yr. old while he is trying to teach me how to hold a golf club:
5 yr. old: “You have to hold it like this because you get more leverage.”
Me: “OK.”
5 yr. old: “Leverage is something that makes you stronger than you really are. But I don’t really know how it works.”
Conversation with a 5 yr. old:
Me: “What is your favorite thing to do?”
5 yr. old: “Pet kitties.” ********short pause******** “No, wait…shoot guns.”
Hmmm…pet kitties…shoot guns. MPD anyone?
