Funny 4 year old

Kids do say the darnedest things! Hubby and I have never really done the baby talk thing with our kids, nor do we talk down to them. On one hand, I think it helps kids mature and be able to communicate well. On the other hand, it makes for a brutally honest, smart alec daughter.

Here are some of Miss Rose's recent one-liners.

When verbally invited by another 4yr old to her Barbie Birthday party.
"No, I don't want to come. I only like boy toys, I don't play with Barbies."

When she heard hubby and I talking about the Iron Man Movie.
"If I was Iron Man, I'd iron EVERYBODY."

When some of my co-workers stopped by randomnly (note...my job is basically in my backyard--church/parsonage etc).
"What are all these people doing here?" Mind you, she knows them and sees them several times a week.

After splashing water on herself drinking at a drinking fountain.
"My bad."

Whenever something pleases her.
"That's what I'm talking about, baby."

After finding out she didn't have to go somewhere.
"Whew, close call."

While pointing at an unfortunate blemish on her aunt's face.
"What is THAT?"

During one of her pretend games.
"Do you want me to pour some finger rays on you?"

While standing behind a large chair, when told to stop playing (Transformers...thank you boys in her Sunday school class) and get ready for bed.
"Hold on, let me transform into a little girl again."

And my personal favorite, said randomly every now and then while she grabs onto my legs.
"You are the best mommy in the world."

That's my girl!
