Life on Florida’s West Coast

Out of the mouths of toddlers

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting Suncoast Scribe!

I don’t have enough time in the day to tell you all the reasons that living with a small child is fun. I heard Johnny Depp tell David Letterman once that living with toddlers is like living with a drunk. Not so terribly far from the truth, my friend! A fun drunk, though, without the hangover.

My daughter is 4 now, but she still says memorable stuff on a daily basis. Plus, the things she feels are the things that are so important she has to call and tell me about while she is at her dad’s are just alarmingly befuddling. Tonight it was very much important that she call and tell me she was eating pasta with a baby spoon. :)

Or, how about this toddler-speak story from A Crack ‘n Life? 10 minutes. One word. Over and over. Only a child. :)

Well now I don’t know whether to get a small of child or a drunk. Decisions, decisions…

Little kids are the best! They crack me up all the time.

I saw that Letterman show and I was shaking my head yes when he said that.

What I would give to have little ones again! My two are 11 and 13, and are certainly not FUN drunks! (hehe) They’re great kids, but the teenage thing is creeping up on me!

It’s funny - when they were little, I wanted them to be big, and now I wish they were little again! Ha!

Thanks for dropping by!

Funny you say little ones are like drunks. We always call my 11 month old a drunk. He will start drinking his bottle and then start falling all over the place like it was booze (but just juice).
