From the mouth of my child...


Kristopher has always been able to make me laugh. From the day he was born, he could put a smile on my face by just...well...being Kristopher. As he has gotten older, it's only gotten better. Kristopher learned, at a very young age, how to use sarcasm. This is both a curse and a blessing, but let me focus on the blessing right now.


I have decided (after the prompting of my wonderful husband) to start sharing some of Kristopher's quotes. Many are dripping with sarcasm, and some were just delivered with perfect timing. I hope you enjoy them as much as we have.


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Age 4 - While travleling across town, Kris was unsuccessful in getting Darrin to understand what he was trying to say. His frustration led to the comment, "You just don't get me, Dad."


Age 4 - At preschool, Kris was disappointed to have to be using the "baby" playground instead of the preferred "big kids" playground. So, he went to one of the rocking toys (you know...the horse or zebra on a big coil) and yelled to his teachers, "Hey teacher. Goo goo gaa gaa!"


Age 5 - He picked this up from his "Uncle Sass." While riding in a car, with the window down, we see joggers and bicyclists. Kris loves to yell, "Get a car! You're gonna die anyway!" Thanks Daniel!


Age 6 - Kristopher has already made a list of what he is looking for in a wife:


1. A hot lady that isn't married

2. She has to be nice

3. She has to love Jesus

4. She has to like wathcing TV

5. She should be a cheerleader

6. She has to want babies


Age 6 - While playing flag football, we noticed he was having a bit of trouble paying attention. So, on the sidelines, Darrin told him that he needs to listen to his coach better. Kris replied, "I'm trying to think about football, but I can't help it. I keep looking at them." (pointing to the cheerleaders)


Age 6 - While moving his great grandmother in to Grandma and Papa's house (a stressful time to say the least). He walked in and made the comment, "Well, the dog puked on the floor. That's a good sign."


Age 6 - Kris likes to climb in and out of his bedroom window. (Don't worry...it's a one story home) We shut the window, and moved on. Well, Kris wasn't happy about this. Next thing we heard was Kris. He came INSIDE the back door, and yelled, "Open the freakin window!" I had to wait a minute or two to get on to him. I couldn't stop laughing!


Age 6 - After doing a little Christmas shopping with me, we packed the gifts into the trunk. Once we were in the car, and headed home, I made sure to tell Kris, "Now remember, we can't tell Grandma and Papa what we bought. It's a secret." His response..."Well, what did you tell me for then?"

I'm sure there are several that I have missed, and there will be several more to come. Keep checking back and have a laugh with me.
