Two from today.
-Kid #1 is absolutely hilarious. He came in and then proceeded to regale me with this long-winded tale of how he woke up really late because daddy was already at "school" (his words) and mummy was also at "school" so his grandma had to take him. ALL of this was delivered with this really chirpy voice and he fit the "5-year-old bouncing up and down like a kid high on sugar" stereotype SO well (he's 5!)....at 8am.
-Kid #2 took great delight today in putting me and my CW in "Jail". What was my crime? Pretending to "catch her."

Khan wanted to set up a lemonade stand for an hour during the annual neighborhood yard sale. After closing up the lemonade stand for the day (he made $2.75), we walked a little ways through the neighborhood. Khan decided he wanted to get me a present from one of the yard sales.
I am now the proud owner of a huge, glittery pink stuffed unicorn.

A very old story, from when my now 10 year old was learning to read. Since he was getting pretty good at reading, he likes to yell off various store names in the car as we passed them. This was great, until he yelled out, "Look mommy! It's Men's whorehouse!"
I couldn't stop laughing long enough to tell him that it was Men's WAREhouse.

the reason why is that they'll begin to see that those letter sounds are used everywhere and not just in books.

Was just at the post office, getting a couple of packages mailed off. In front of me at the counter is this gentleman with his granddaughter, she looked to be about 5.
Man (to postal worker): Does this look like a 3?
PW: No, here, let me fix that
Kid: I can teach you how to make a 3! It goes like this *starts swooping one hand around*
The postal worker and I both just dissolved into giggles, it was so cute.You're only delaying the inevitable, you run at your own expense. The repo man gets paid to chase you. ~Argabarga

Khan has a lot of fun with this kid at the park. His mom and I exchange info for a playdate. Then they leave. I tell Khan we also have to go because I forgot his sunscreen and I don't want him to be out in the sun too long.
Khan: "I HAVE TO GO! MY MOMMY FORGOT MY SUNSCREEN!"
Me: "Great, just tell everyone I'm a bad mom."
Khan: "BECAUSE SHE'S A BAD MOMMY!"
I bet this other mother never calls me...

One from today:
One of the kids was leaving when he spotted another parent walking in. He yells out "HI, <CHILDS> MUM!"
Turns out that not only was it actually the FATHER, but it wasn't even the right child!

Khan, playing his grandma's Kindle, runs into a snag in his game.
Khan: "Where's Daddy?"
Me: "In the potty."
Khan goes to the bathroom door. "Daddy! I have a serious situation here. I'm begging you to help me out."

Khan: "When Mary Poppins is around, crazy things happen."
Me: "That's because she knows magic. She must be a witch."
Khan: "She's not a witch!"
Me: "Being a witch doesn't necessarily mean you're bad, some witches use black magic but there are good witches too. 'Witch' just means a woman who knows magic."
Khan: "She's not a witch! She's an ordinary person but different!"
