    Many years ago I was with my b.i.l. and wife and their 3 1/2 year old son. I was sitting up the front of the boat with the youngster.The conversation went like this.

    Boy: Uncle Jim, where is your dad?
    Me: My dad died a long time ago.
    .
    .
    .Boy: Was your dad sick?
    Me: Yes mate, he was very sick.
    .
    .
    ..Boy: Couldn't the Doctors make him better?
    Me: No John, they couldn't make him better

    At this point I glanced down the back to see b.i.l. and wife listening intently
    .
    .
    .
    .Boy: Did the Doctors put him down?
    Me..keeping a dead straight face(I don't know how): No John, the Doctors did not put him down. They would get into bad trouble if they did.

    I glanced back to see the others bent over double with tears running down their faces, trying not to laugh out loud.

    Apparently they had just had a dog put down and the little tacker was trying to get his head around it.

    Our two year old granddaughter went through a phase of walking around with a soft toy stuffed down her front and telling everyone she had a baby. Fortunately she's a bit young for babies.

    Sometimes kids say funny things because they heard them from their parents, like my mate who has lost a few budgies over the years, and occasionally couldn't get the right colour replacement one from the local pet shop, so he told them they change colour when their feathers molt!

    The grandkids came over today when i was out.

    So i got home to find the usual mess,kids toys everywhere.And they had made some chocolate brownies,so the kitchen was a mess as well,SWMBO was half way through cleaning it up.

    So i say to SWMBO,the bloody place looks like a bomb has gone off.

    On the way home,many hours later,the older one says to SWMBO,what does he mean,'looks like a bloody bomb has gone off"

    Apparently tonight as his Dad was reading him a story in bed,he said,'you know we have so much fun at their place,then we have to come home'

    My 11 year old Foster Daughter has an issue with single lane roads.
    When she was about 7 we were driving near Georgetown, she was in the front & piped up "I don't like one road!"

    Then a couple of weeks ago we were driving to Cloncurry, she was in the front again & asked "Why do they make one road? Why can't it all be 2 road?"
    I explained that it was cheaper because they did not have to use so much tar, gravel etc & it didn't take as long.
    A 100 or 2 k later we stopped at a large fully paved truck pull off area so I could have a smoke.
    When I got back in the car she said "There is plenty of road here, why don't they move it & make one road into 2 road?"
    I didn't really have an answer.

    Kids' logic can be hilarious at times.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    The two grandkids were over on the weekend.
    Boy is about 6, girl around 4.She is still in nappies.

    Anyway,yes we would love to play under the soaker hose,they say.Grass needs a water anyway.

    So the boy is in his jocks,I say to the girl,get your nappy off,that will be OK,in the back yard,there is no one around.

    The boy says,that’s “inappropriate”

    I am sure it’s the biggest word I have ever heard him say.

    Oh well,how things have changed.
