| Kid's funny phrases |
We took the kids to the demolition derby. The next day and forever after when TJ mentions cars he says, “cars crash.” This happens all day long.
They would also say shut ‘em down shut ‘em down… I told Lexi to not shut down one day and TJ echoed "shut 'em down, shut 'em down, shut 'em down." At least it got Lexi to smile. Jojo: why is that girl so tall? Aunt Tammy: she ate lots of fruits and vegetables and she was really nice to her mommy and daddy. Do you think you can do that also and grow tall? Jojo: no, my mom doesn’t feed me vegetables Jojo: Mom! The bugs that we saw are now married Jojo prayed in primary to please help us with our gardening Mom: Grandpa is 103 as much as mommy is 29 Mom: Is mom actually 29? Jojo:No Mom: Is grandpa actually 103 Jojo: Yes Jojo sneaks out of the house at 5 and 6 to play with friends. We are in trouble when she’s a teenager. She should have been born to a pirate. Rules are more like guidelines. Jojo comes up with some funny things. She talks about the earth having chains around it and the evil Jesus (Satan) being in charge. She also can’t figure out why I wasn't at my mom’s birth. Jojo was distraught over forgetting her permission slip at school. She knew it was on yellow paper. TJ got down from the dinner table and went and found her some yellow paper to help her feel better (Twice) TJ called police for help in an elevator. Why do they put those buttons so low? Jojo: Sister Reading told me to wear my seatbelt a different way so i cried…. Grrrr… this is a habit I want to break Jojo: I love you more than dad Me: I love you both Jojo: I meant to say I love dad more than you Me: Jojo: all I want for Christmas is for my cough to go away. I need to tell Santa Jojo: I have to be baptized to go visit the old people. Mom: no, you have to be vaccinated
