Wisdom of a 4 Year-Old - On the Value of a Sibling

To a random lady in Target who commented on the Mother of the Gremlin browsing maternity clothes.

"Oh, I love babies. Are you excited about having a sibling?"

"No. But you can trade me some Legos for it."

"For the baby? Um, I don't know what Legos you'd want. Sorry!"

"We're in Target, the Lego aisle is right there! Or you can give me twenty dollars and I'll get my own. AND you get a baby!"

Who Built Those Legos?

The Gremlin was playing Legos the other day and I noticed something.

"Why does that Police man have a peg leg and two hooks for hands? That doesn't seem like it would be useful in a Police situation."

"Because that's how God made him. God ran out of Lego hands and had to give him hooks."

Wisdom Of A 3 and 1/2 Year Old - On Lying

"Okay, buddy, we missed Daddy's birthday, so we're going to celebrate it tomorrow. What do you think he wants?"
"Momma, give me the phone. I call Daddy." Gremlin retreats to his room and closes the door.
"Okay Momma, Daddy wants a firetruck cake. Chocolate. And-uh-the Lego Fire Truck Station!"
"Is that the truth?"
"Yes, but as long as you don't ask him. Are you going to ask him?"
"Yes I am buddy."
"Okay, then he wants it now so it's here before he gets home. I go get the keys. Momma, is it lying if you don't check?"
