From the mouths of babes...
I have a grand niece, aged five. Let's call her Angeline...Recently she came out with these three gems.
1. Wandering around in grandpa's study, she bangs her back against the backrest of the computer chair. Turns and glares at the chair, says "Oww, JESUS!" (Well, it is Christmas after all...)
2. Recently her step grandfather died. She's helping Grandmum sort his stuff out. Comes across his cellphone. Says "Well, he isn't gonna need THAT any more is he?"
3. Upon throwing a hissyfit, she is asked by her mother, "Where's that sweet smiling Angeline I know?" Replies (somewhat angrily) "She's gone away...and she left ME in charge!!"
Kids huh? Nothing like them.
