Words from a 7 (almost 8) year old


Anna:  "Mom, I don't understand why saying 'shut up' is so bad.  It means the same thing as saying 'be quiet,' doesn't it?"

Mom:  "Hmmm ... it's an impolite and disrespectful way of saying, 'be quiet.'"

Anna:  "But isn't it how I say it?  What if I say it like this, (With a soft and gentle tone & smiling)  'Will you please shut up?'"
.......
Anna:  "When I grow up I want to be a teacher.  I want to have four kids ... 2 girls and 2 boys. I'm going to name the boys Jacob and Caleb. I hope the girls are twins so I can name them Mia and Maya or Isabelle and Annabelle."
.......
Anna:  "Mom can you please keep Sarah's sippy cup away from me?"
Mom: "umm ... what do you mean? What's going on?"
Anna:  "I can't stand the smell of milk.  Sarah keeps putting her sippy cup up to my lips. Then I opened it for her and got a real smell of the milk.  I DON'T like milk.  I just want you to know that I'm never drinking milk ever again in my life."
.....
A friend posted something on Facebook about Anna, and we let her read the post.
Her reply
Anna:  "I can't believe it! I'm so impressed that I was on Facebook!"
