ME: You are a squealing piggie.
GOOB: No, I'm a whining poo head.
Maybe she does listen when I talk to her. Huh.

Backstory
- Julie
- Pennsylvania, United States
- I'm currently a stay at home mother, freelance writing on my off time, wondering how I became part of the ten thousand year old tradition of raising the kids while creating textiles. I grew up in NE Ohio dairy country, married a sailor, lived in Hawaii ten years, lived in SC for five years, then moved back to culture shock and confusion. Nothing but good times ahead.

That's why I'm always careful what I say around my kid. They usually come out with that stuff when you're in public!
Clearly!
Ravelry has spoiled me - now when I read blogs, I am looking for the funny (1) button to click!
Verification word: "lotat". Lo, tat!
In the Goob's defense: Winnie the Pooh? Piglet? Sound similar...
Once, at McDonald's, as we were leaving, my very young son said thoughtfully into one of those quiet moments that sometimes occurs in a public space:
"So, Mom, when I was born, I came out of your vagina?"
I guess it had just hit him.
Thank you for making me giggle. Kids are so cute. Mine are way past that stage.
One can tell you two are related :-)
I had to start telling me kids when they were little not to quote me. If they started with "my mom said.." it probably was going to be something I never wanted repeated!
hee hee hee... go mom, go!
It's better than saying "no, i'm a fucker like the cat".
I used her line as a title for a blog post. I just LOVE it! But you might want to edit what you say about senior officers and the like, now that you have a little Quisling in the home.
Sort of reminds me of the old Bill Cosby routine where he and his brother grew up thinking their names were God Damn It and Jesus Christ. "Goddamnit, get in this house!" "But Dad, I'm Jesus Christ!"
