Things children say ... Updated
Setting: Kitchen, evening, getting supper on the table.
I am standing at the stove making plates for everyone.
Colby is at the table feeding Steven mashed potatoes because he can't wait when he smells food.
Steve is wandering about the kitchen because he never takes his seat at the table until I do.
Gracie is in the fridge getting out steak sauce and other things when she says, "I am trying to get the condoms for the table. You know, all those sauces and things we need to eat proper."
Steve made a very good attempt at the transition to the word condiments by way of condo's but he was about to hyperventilate when he thought he might have to address the subject 'condoms'. He was quite red in the face and bit sweaty in a matter of just a few seconds.
All I could do was laugh.
Today is the first day of school for Gracie. We leave in a few minutes. I'll be back later to post a photo.

First day in third grade.
She can't believe I brought the camera to school and not real impressed with me at the moment.

heh.
the look on Steven's face must've been priceless.
at least she's practiciing safe supper.
Good luck gracie!
Oh my goodness the condoms comment was a riot and steve's reaction was even funnier!
The things kids say! Guaranteed to bring a laugh and a red face, most of the time. Can't wait for the photo!
Do you we get to see a picture of Steven's red face as well as Gracie's first day at school?
Oh my. Yeah. I do have to say those can be some tense situations!
Gracie is beautiful and look at that tan!
Yea she is not loving her mama so much at that moment! She will thank you someday for the pictures...someday!
Gracie is beautiful and oh boy, have I seen THAT look before! My own girl child started third grade last week. I am not allowed to walk her into the building anymore, according to her. I have to give her a hug and kiss in the parking lot where no one can see. She is very snuggly at home so I don't really care, but sheesh! They grow up fast!
Yay Gracie!! Hope you enjoyed the first day back..The condoms...I would've died ;0) Too funny!
I think Gracie's just messin' with you.
By the way, that child is gorgeous.
