Due Date- Wednesday, May 18- "Kids Say the Darndest Things." Let's share some of those wonderful gems that only kids can come up with. Whether they be things your kids have said, your grandkids, or even something you may have said as a child. As a parent and a teacher, I know I have some priceless ones. If you're comfortable sharing, photos would be fun, too!

Jeff and Justin (3 years old) looking in nursery window
at his newborn sister, Jessica. About this photo, Justin said,
"Here we are, picking out which baby we want."

When Justin was 2 years old, he saw his first crescent moon.
He worriedly exclaimed, "Moon, broken!"

As a teacher, I have so many instances of kids saying the darndest things. One of my favorites has to be this exchange:
I was reading a biography of Abraham Lincoln to a group of second graders. I asked, "What is a biography?" After a few guesses, I explained it was the written story of someone's life.
I tend to give sophisticated explanations so I went further to explain that "bio" means life and "graphy" means to write.
Then I posed the following question: so if a biography is the story of someone's life, then what is an autobiography?

One little boy frantically waved his hand, sure that he had the answer and said: "The story of a car's life?"
