When I was all dolled up, I stupidly asked my 7 year old son if I looked pretty - he looked at me carefully and said "no, not really, but you DO smell nice".

the way i see that's that she's basically jealous! I certainly have a son and that i comprehend i'd get jealous while he would quit crying with my dad's female chum particularly than his mommy. So i comprehend yet i'd recover from it and attempt to make the better of my DIL. fortunate me my MIL lives in Mexico, i've got by no potential met her, and ive purely talked to her as quickly as on the telephone interior the three years my husband and that i've got been at the same time! that's a bond which you create as quickly as you first carry your infant and then sooner or later he's off and married and worried approximately yet another women. It would desire to truly harm yet that's what happens in existence. basically like i moved removed from my mom and married my husband my son will sooner or later do this specific same. basically like i'd bypass curfew and lie my son will do a similar.

YES yes yes yes
The saying goes, "Out of the mouths of babes..."
They are well meaning in their comments but it can cut to the bone.
Is there an element of truth in the comment that you need to pay attention to?
I have learned some uncomfortable truths from my own two many many times.
But
He meant well...
Yah gotta love the little guy for trying to be sweet even if it was misguided!

I was out shopping with my four year old son and he overheard me tell someone that my mother had the flu. A couple of days later he told another of my friends my Nana has fleas I was totally shocked by what he had said and I said no she doesn't and he replied yes she does I heard you tell the lady the other day that Nana has the flea I thought it was just so cute and yes he did mean Nana had the flu.

i dont think they intentionally mean to 'insult' us.. children just have this great honesty about them. I wasn't insulted by this- but the cutest/sweetest thing my daughter said just a few months ago (she is 6) I was in the bathroom getting ready to go away for the evening and she said, "mommy why do you always put on makeup when you go away... you look beautiful without it" it totally melted my heart!

My daughter was four at the time and I was in the bathroom getting changed. She looks at me and says every so sweetly, mommy, your just a little bit fat. Kinda like a walrus!
If she wasn't cute I tell ya. *s*

My three year old and I were singing Old McDonald and he said "Mom, you're a dog." I sat there stunned for a second before I realized he meant he wanted me to pretend to be a dog.

Yesterday I asked my kids what they thought of having an exchange student to come live with us, My daughter said "Can we have a girl? Cause I want to have a girl come live with us that I can actually live with"
My husband just busted out laughing laughing and left the room.

I would have said "I must have lost weight". How cute. Not for us, but someday when your child is older you can tell them what they said and you can laugh about it.
