"Katie-isms" - Post #3

In my car, Katie points to a weird little button next to the dashboard.

"What is that button for, Mom?" she asks.

"I actually have no idea," I admit.

She looks at me with knowing smile and says matter-of-factly, "I think it's for a parachute."

Sitting around the house last weekend, Katie suddenly asks my husband,

"Dad, did you have a skateboard when you were younger?"

"Nope, I didn't," he responded.

"Oh," Katie replied a little sadly, as if she felt sorry for him. "Had they not invented skateboards yet back when you were a kid?"

"Katie-isms" Post #1

My daughter, age 8, is the queen of saying random things that crack me up. Sometimes you just have to wonder where she comes up with the stuff she thinks of. So, in honor of Miss Kate, I have decided to start a new topic for my blog where all of her randomness can just bask in all its glory...I like to call these "Katie-isms"

Yesterday, while riding in the car, Katie asks me from the backseat, "Mom, if just your HAND got ran over by a car, would you be dead?"

Bewildered, I answered, "Um, no...probably not. Why?"

She shakes her head, as if trying to erase the image in her mind and shrugs,
"Just wondering."
