When All Else Fails, Post Funny Kid Stories

My 7-year-old son approached me in the kitchen with a look of great pride on his face.

Son: Did you see that I helped feed Corrie?  I was really helpful, wasn't I?

Me: Yes, thank you.

Son:  So what do I get?

Me:  Your mother's deep appreciation.

Son: [long, disappointed pause]  Anything else?

Here's another one:

After dinner tonight the kids were being especially LOUD.  "BOYS!" I shouted, exasperated, and speaking slowly for emphasis.  "MOM...WANTS...QUIET."  Joseph looked up at me innocently and said, "JOSEPH...WANTS...LOUD."

Last one, I promise.  This is from our Family Archives Of Funniest Kid Stories. 

A couple of years ago, Adam (then 5) had drawn a poster for a poster contest in Sunday school.  On it, he drew a picture of the earth, and at the top was a picture of Jesus on the cross.  There were tears rolling down Jesus' face, and big scary nails poking out of His hands.  We listened as he showed it to his brother Stephen in the backseat.  Stephen asked, "Why is He crying?"  "Because," Adam answered, "He was hoping the bad guys would use tape."

Oh.My.Gosh. Stinkin' hilarious! Your kids are way too cute to be real. Are you sure you aren't making them up? :)

Love the dinner conversation especially!

When all else fails?! Funny kid stories are my favorite kind of posts!

By the way, I enjoyed reading about your Disney adventures. I'm glad you all had a good time and got back safe.

We visited your church both Sundays of spring break! The first Sunday our whole small group decided to visit. While we were there, I kept thinking about some friends of ours who are looking for a new church. We invited them and they wanted to come the next Sunday, so we came with them. We really enjoyed it. Maybe if we visit again, you'll be there too!

What GREAT kids? Don't you just love em'? Thanks for sharing! These made me smile!!

Sorry.. I meant what GREAT kids!! Of course they are GREAT kids!! (not sure why the ? is there in my previous post... except it's late and I'm tired...)*yawn*

I always laugh when I come here to visit. That's why I keep showing up. LOL!

Duplicate comments! How cute. sorry

I'm glad all else failed because these stories were too funny!! Thanks for sharing : )

"JOSEPH...WANTS...LOUD." This is the best ever. Dan and I are both totally laughing. It sounds like something that could come out of Laylee's mouth any minute now.

Hilarious! Thanks for the early morning laugh.

I think one of my favorite things about family blogging is typing out and sharing stories like these. Really helps me get through the day with a better sense of humor. ;)

This is what being the mommy is all about. I love hearing stories about the fun things other people's children say almost as much as I love telling about the funny things mine do! Sometimes more, because I don't reap all the consequences . . .

Awe! These boys are totally adorable. I love the funny things they say... and the one about the tape vs. nails had me laughing out loud!!!

Thanks for sharing your family moments with us!

These are great! As long as you have kids, you'll never run out of 'funny'

Mary, mom to many funny ones

Okay, the tape thing had me laughing out loud on a day I really needed it. Thanks bunches!

Thanks for the smiles this morning! It's been quite a few years since I've experienced the JOY of little ones experiencing life around my dinner table; I appreciate the reminder...of what a blessing we can find....in the chaos of the noise of life!

The tape thing was hysterical. Sounds like something my son would say.

I don't know how you do it, but everytime I visit, I laugh. :)

Thanks!

Laughing from the depths of my belly - toooo cute!!

Laugh out loud funny! My keyboard & monitor now have morning coffee dripping from them! Don't you love the innocence of kids!?

ROFL about the tape story. Oh so funny. YOu are killing me.

Bring on the cute kid stories. I LOVE them

Classics... Pure classics! I love the Joseph wants loud one. That is exactly what would happen at our house!

You are so funny!

I can testify she's not making these stories up!!! There's always laughter in Shannon's house cause there's always someone saying something really funny!! Her hubs has incredible humor, too. I'm very blessed to be the grandmother to these funny, funny little guys!!!
