If you know Kaylie, you know she comes up with some great one-liners (and two and three liners). She cracks me up all the time, and the best part is when I totally crack up she says "What?!?" - she has no clue how funny she is and isn't usually saying things to get a laugh, she just has a unique way of looking at life. Here are some recent gems: (not as funny if you don't know Kaylie and can't read them in her voice, but I found them entertaining)
• Walking up to my grandparent’s wreath decorated door –
Me: Oh, look at Nana and Papa’s cute wreath
K: Yes, it adds such a charming touch
• In the car –
Hannah: What was I about to say to you [Mom]?
Me: I love you Mom, you are the best mom ever and I am so lucky to have you as a mom?
K: I was about to say that! (pause) Not really.
• On the way home from school –
K: Mom, Allen said my mouse [her new KinzClip] is a rat. I said, “No, it’s not, it’s a mouse. M-O-U-S-E, mouse. And he said R-A-T, rat! [more talking about rat v. mouse]…and it has a furless pink tail, which I am kind of creeped out by the furless part….[and on and on…much more than one ever needed to know about stuffed mini-mice - this one was just funny because she kept going and the tone of voice she had]
• In her book report – (please don’t think this is mean)
Then Old Nimrod died on the altar steps. (He was on an altar then when he died.) [This is a direct quote from the report.]
• When I was sick recently –
I think you are getting pregnant again
• Explaining to me why she wanted a book on “dog language” for Christmas –
Well, I just wanted to be able to understand Archie and Marvin [our dogs].
