 Topic: Another from the mouths of babes

Well...Ted J asked and I guess that's the trick. My kids have been watching a lot of veterinarian shows lately and it showed today. We have taken in another dog and it's a girl named Freckles. We also have Baxter. We had Easter at my parents house and took the dogs and Cora introduced Freckles to everybody by saying "this is freckles. Her and Baxter are mating". Now I'm pretty sure she doesn't know what mating is, at least I hope not at 6, but it was quite funny to hear

Way back when our daughter was about 5. The wife and I had been married for awhile. We had 2 boys 1 and 2. I asked the wife what happened to the spontaneity we used to have. Our daughter was playing and over heard this and asked "who is Spot and Eddie?" Well sweetie, it's some good friends we used to know awhile back. Gone but not forgotten.

My 3 year old GD has a large stuff sheep and some small ones.
She takes them and shows people how you pull a lamb from a ewe.
Then she shows them how to milk the ewe.

Tyler, a 6 year old knows a lot more sometimes than you think they do. Thankfully being brought up on a farm Cora will have a much more realistic perspective on life than the city kids. As you said "no better place than a farm to raise kids." You and your bride are doing a great job of raising those two sweethearts.

She’s 28 now, but several years ago, our youngest had just figured out about numbers! Not to count yet, but numbers. I was under my crown Vic counting out the turns as I’m removing an outer tie rod end! She comes over and decides I need help-so she shouts out random numbers-not knowing she’s NOT helping! I couldn’t tell her either as I’d forget my count!

This is Freckles and Pokey, I'll let you guess. Their both female chihuahuas, and just Maties.

I may have told this one before but here you go again. When my renters 12 year old daughter was around 4, she was at a day care place part of the day so they could get more work done on the farm. One day they were learning about veterinarians, and Georgia proceeded to show how her mom castrates pigs. She had a stuffed elephant but from what I understand, she had the procedure down pretty accurately. When mom went to pick her up, the teacher said "We need to talk". The kids were fine with it but a couple of the mothers who were there were a bit upset...

I shouldn’t tell this but here goes.
I was out at a farm one day talking to a man. He had a stud horse. An old white Chevy truck pulled in with a homemade 1 horse trailer and a mare in the trailer. He got out and talked to the rancher for a bit. They walked to the trailer and unloaded the mare. About that time a little boy jumped out of the truck and walked along with them.
They got over by the barn and the stud horse. The stud got to prancing around and the little boy told his dad get that mare out of here before he tries to ?$&! Her. That boy is all grown up now but still a cussin machine.

Leave it to Evie to not be out done. Baxter has been chasing Freckles around "sniffing" pretty much constantly. She just told my parents Baxter was "sniffing Freckles udders" and she thought he got some milk out of one of them

Tyler we’re building a house for a family with two young boys. This is a very well to do city family. The older boy is 8 and a video game but. He doesn’t have much to say. The younger boy is 4 and just the cutest.
He wants to be a construction worker or a dirt worker or a truck driver.😃 they’re organic health nuts but I accidentally slipped him a glazed Doughnut. Now he’s a Doughnut lover. He follows me everywhere. Yesterday he was trying to catch him a bird. He asked if I know how to catch a bird. I told him to put salt on their tail. A little later he told me he was gonna order a bunch of salt from Amazon.😁😁.
I dearly love these stories

Joe one day his mother asked what kind of boots I wear? I told her Arriat work hogs.
Now the little boy runs around in little Arriat work hogs with his jammies stuffed in the top of his boots.£

Reminds me of the little Johnny jokes. Little Johnny is bored after school lets out for the summer and takes to hanging around a nearby construction site every day. Sure enough, one night at dinner Johnny says "pass me one of them GD biscuits" and the mother freaks out scolding him as she has taught her kids manners and allows no cussing, shocked that he also cussed at the dinner table. She tells her husband she does not want him hanging around that construction site because of the bad influence but the husband insists it is good for him as he is just bored and he as the father is at his job in town all day and can't spend time withe boy. Summer continues, Johnny becomes quite the little helper at the construction site and spends every day there but his constant swearing at dinner continues. One night at dinner he let's loose another expletive and his mother has had enough and exclaims "that's it Johnny, go outside and bring me a switch off a tree as you are gonna get a woopin". To which Johnny replies, "call the electrician, that's his F-ing job"
