5 year old: Is this guy looking blue to you?
Me (having horrible thoughts of one his younger brothers choking in the back seat), slams on the brakes : Which guy?
5 year old looking out the window : This guy, mum
Me having already taken seat belt off and starting to get out of the car : The guy outside?
…………………..oh, you mean THE SKY???

HA HA LOL
good one.
LOL — I laugh with you, and not at you, because I’ve done the same myself! More than once!
4yo: Mommy, something’s wrong with A2.
Mommy: SOMETHING’S WRONG WITH A2?! What is it?? What’s wrong with him??? (braking suddenly on interstate, looking around wildly to pull over onto the shoulder)
4yo: He won’t play with me!
(checking mirrors, reaching over to feel fontanel, all while driving at 70 mph)
Mommy: He’s just sleeping!
4yo: Wake him up!
Mommy: NO! And don’t you try to wake him up, either!
(4yo, caught in act, looks up and grins)
4yo: I wasn’t going to wake him up, Mommy! You can’t see me! You don’t know what I was doing! I was not trying to kick his seat with my foot!
LOL – oh that feeling fontanelle thing – I do it all the time. “Is it looking bulging to you? I think it’s bulging. Why is it pulsating like that? It feels really sunken..”
Oh and I just love those “I wasn’t doing (insert any number of forbidden acts), Mummy.” *muahahahahah*
“I wasn’t doing (insert any number of forbidden acts), Mummy.†my 4yr old does the same thing!!
What I love about the “I wasn’t doing (forbidden act), Mommy” line is that even if you didn’t know what was being done, now you do. Mwah hah hah! >:]
Sometimes I’ll tell my four year old he needs to work on his lying skills and he’ll give me a funny look and say, “but I’m not lying down, Mommy, I’m standing up!”

A guy called Gervase Phinn did a whole series of books on the sort of things kids say, supposedly drawn from his experiences as a school inspector in Yorkshire. It does sometimes give the impression of just being a collection of old funny-kid stories, but they are still funny anyway.
Example story:
Mr Phinn is in a class and the teacher is talking with a class of 6-year-olds about their recent visit to a farm. One boy said they saw a collection of pigs, horses, cows and f***ers.
The teacher says, “I’m quite sure you didn’t see any of those“.
And the boy replies, “well, the farmer called ‘em ‘eifers (heifers), but I know what he really meant”.
