It's Finally Friday..which means it's time for 7QTF.  This is the "what they said" version.  Cute or not so cute kid sayings in Household Bentrup.

Elsa just started being able to sit unsupported.  She's pretty steady and but does still wobble over on occasion.   So, today John said

Elsa, you're so cute, sitting by yourself, but you might fall so I will rescue you and save you.

Greta...said all in one breath..without stopping.
Mom, did you know that a salties (saltwater crocodiles) are the most aggressive crocodile in the world., so if a person ever sees one they need to stay far, far away.  But, we probably won't ever be in India or Australia, right?  So, we probably won't ever have to worry about being attacked by a saltie.  Did you know that a saltie can even eat a tiger.  But I thought tigers were apex predators. So does that mean that salties are apex predators or are tigers apex predators? Tigers are really aggressive too, and sometimes attack people.  But, there are no tigers in Fl. right?  Well, except in the zoo, I saw a tiger in the zoo, but it's in a cage, so it can't get us, right?  Sometimes I wonder what it would be like to be a crocodile or a tiger.  Which would you rather be.  I think I'd rather be a tiger because they're pretty, but I might want to be a crocodile, because they get to swim all the time and I like to swim.  Oh, I just can't decide.  And, did you know that tigers can climb trees...and climb them well?  And, tigers can also swim, so there is no place that is safe from tigers.
She has a tendency to just ramble on...and she currently has this fascination with "dangerous animals".  I really, really hope she doesn't decide to be the next Crocodile Hunter.

Grete, while I'm on Facebook

Is what you're doing important?  Because it doesn't look important to me.
You mean Facebook isn't important?

Heidi, in a super sweet card to me.

I'm giving you my favorite picture and my state quarters that with them you might amuse yourself. 
Yeah..she likes to read a lot of books where the characters speak with "old-fashioned" language.

This one is a few years old..but it's so good, I just have to share it.

Greta..when she was 5 and shortly before we moved to FL so Ben could attend law school...as said to our parish priest.

My daddy is going to go to liar school.

This one is from the beginning of Lent.  I told the kids that I was going to give up yelling for lent and try to be more loving,.

John:
Darn it, I wanted ice cream.

And, I can't think of anything else, so anyone have any cute kid's sayings they want to share?  I love to hear what gems other kids come up with.

Have a great weekend, all!
