I have a very talkative 4 year old son. He is the funniest little person I know. He's at the stage where he asks a million questions a day and is just generally very curious about everything.
Some of our laugh-out-loud conversations:
Quino: Mom, I'm itchy all over (scratching his arms and legs)! Please put ointment.
Me: Stop scratching. It's all in your mind.
Quino: My mind is not itchy! It's my body!
Quino wrestles me and I tickle him.
Quino: (laughing so hard) Mom, please stop. Laughing makes me so tired.
Me: Do you know laughter is the best medicine?
Quino: NO! That's impossible! You can't drink laughter!!!
Me: I wish you could be a baby forever.
Quino: (thinking long and hard) OK mom, I won't eat na so I won't get big.
Quino: Mom, how come you won't allow yaya to make me calamansi juice anymore?
Me: Cause you haven't been drinking water recently. All you drink is
calamansi juice. That's not good you know. It has a lot of sugar.
Quino: Mom, I just want calamansi juice. Why you put sugar?? Don't put sugar na lang!
Quino: (pointing to a man with a big belly) Look mom, he has a baby in his tummy!
Me: Quino, don't point that's rude. And he doesn't have a baby. That's just his belly.
Quino: He's fat.
Quino: Can you help me bring down my toys (pointing to his 4 toy cars)?
Me: You can do it yourself (trying to help him be more independent and not make utos all the time)
Quino: (Crying) But I'm not an octopus!!!!!!!!
Quino: Dad, what did you buy?
Daddy: Beer.
Quino: What's that?
Daddy: An alcoholic drink.
Quino: Huh? You can't drink alcohol!!!
Quino: Mom, what's the name of your school?
Me: I studied in Colegio San Agustin and De La Salle University.
Quino: University? I want to study in Monsters University!
He never fails to amuse me with his witty answers. I hope he never loses that curiosity and charm :)
