I love  little kids they say things that no one ever thinks about and they can just make your day. I love how kids come up with the cutest and funniest things and how they blurt out the first thing that comes to their mind. One of the funniest things I have ever heard from a little kid was at my sisters ballet performance. It was Christmas time and she was playing the Nutcracker so she had to wear a wig. We had brought our good family friends to see it and when my sister came out on stage our friend's youngest son ( probably like 7 at the time ) said " Where did all her hair go !!!". He was horrified and we had to explain to him that she was wearing a wig. To this day we always tease him about what he said that day and I don't don't think anyone will forget that moment for a long time. The cutest kids are probably the ones in my choir because they always make me smile. During the summer me and my friend were helping little kids do some musicianship worksheets at our choir's workshop and this little boy walks up us and says " There should be a day when everyone brings a coat hanger to school and hangs it on random stuff". Me and my friend didn't know what to say and laughed, kids come up with most interesting ideas. My favourite quote about things kids say is about why dogs live shorter lives than people. The parents of a 6 year old asked their son this question after they had to put their sick dog down and he said “People are born so that they can learn how to live a good life – like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right?” and then continued “Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don’t have to stay as long.” I thought this was one of the cutest things I have ever heard and I was amazed at how deep this quote was. Usually when kids say things its usually just something cute or silly but this came right from the heart. I never said anything like this when I was kid but my sister always reminds me of funny things I did when I was younger. She told me story about how how when I was little I had to dress up as my favourite fairytale character for preschool. Apparently my mom was looking forward to making me a princess costume but I told her that I wanted to be the big bad wolf. When she asked why I told her that " princesses just wait to be rescued".  I have seen pictures of me in the wolf costume and it sounds like something I would say because I wasn't your typical kid. I have always loved animals all my life and my sister also told me that I wanted to be a polar bear when I was younger and that I would go around the house growling.  This is picture shows my all time favourite story about things little kids do and say I literally laughed for 5 minutes when I read this !!! I hope when I have a kid in the future they will be this awesome:
