Kids Say the Darndest Things

“The ladies go loco for a brother in a polo.” Jamison, 12/07. Perhaps he thinks a polo showcases his muscles to advantage? He informed me once that a guy’s muscles are really his trophies. So, maybe a polo better displays his “trophies” than does a garden variety T-shirt.

“One of the girls hates me. She put me on the mean list.” Kieran, 01/07/08. He confided this to me when we were lying in bed last night and talking about his day. I’m scared to ask exactly what he did that got him put on the ‘mean list’ as a nine year old in third grade.

“Ball.” Gabriel, 01/09/08.
