GUITAR DAD

 
 
Picture
"Do you get to eat lunch in jail?" my son asked, prompting me to wonder why he's contemplating time behind bars.
 
"Yeah, but it's just water and a slice of bread," I told him. Turns out he was just wondering, a little concerned that detainees might be going hungry.
 
This is just one of the many amusing inquiries and comments my wife and I hear from our kids on a daily basis.
 
"When you're in college, where do you brush your teeth?" my boy asked. On another occasion he wondered, "Can a bee sting you through a napkin?" Good question. Not sure about that one and don't want to find out.
 
My daughter is more declarative than inquisitive. "You forgot to put dessert in my belly," she has said more than once. One of my favorites was, "Dad, my dress is wet from my pee." Once, while luxuriating in a bubble bath, she looked up, smiled and announced: "Ahhh, this is the life."
 
Indeed, this is the life. You little kids crack me up.

That's very funny. My wife showed my son a picture of her while pregnant with him and said, "You are in my belly." He got all mad and said, "You ate me!"

Kids certainly do have their own perspective.

Being the EvilDad ™ that I am, I like to make some of my explanations somewhat, er, fantastic. For example: I have turned my daughters on to classic movies. They asked me why are they in black and white, and my reply was that they made those movies before there was any color in the world. The looks were priceless, heh heh.

(Funny story, Fkdupdad!)
