There are just some things that I don’t want to forget about my son’s life as a 5 year old. As I get older I know I will have memories but I may not remember his exact words so I thought that maybe I should write down his words here for me and for him to look back on as he grows older. It may embarass him or make him laugh or both. He may one day be thankful and appreciate that I kept some of these things that he said as a 5 year old.

Out of the mouth of our 5 year old son (5 years, 8 months to be exact.) Sometimes I have no idea what is going on inside his brain but he sure has a lot of questions. Some…not so easy to answer.

“Is gas like blood for cars?”

“Uh, apple juice happens to look a lot like yellow pee”.

“Mom, why does God make sick kids?”

“Are brothers like friends that live with you?”

I’ll have to add to this list as I recall them or he says more that I really want to jot down. What’s some stuff that your kids are saying? I hope that you write some down to remember that wonderful stage of their lives.
