While I have found joy in every age Lucas has been, four has been my favorite so far because his sense of humor and curiosity are in full swing.
I have my blog, where I share a lot of adorable Lucas quips and conversations, but I love having this book to document gems such as these….
Hey look, I’m an a-hole.
I’m so happy that I am relaxing for a little while.
Old McDonald’s has the best hamburgers I have ever put my mouth.
Okay, sun I’m done with you today. You are too bright.
Oh, yay! There’s a hot tub!
I wonder if there is a school where you can come check on me during the day, because I miss you.
It’s a red light kind of day, mama.
I need to have one of every color Jordan almond right now!
Lucas: Do we still have my three wheel Scooter?
Me: Yes, I think it’s in the garage.
Lucas: Good, because want to give it to my baby. And I also want to get her a helmet with pink flames.
Lucas: What do you think the baby is doing right now?
Me: Just hanging out and growing and around moving a lot.
Lucas: Well, maybe you should eat a baby toy, so it has something to do.
Cringe worthy, heart warming, sassy, insightful, funny and smart, that’s my quotable kid!
This post was written for Mama Kat’s Writer’s Workshop Prompt 5. Write a list of things your kids have said that that made you cringe.

Love the baby toy quote! Yeah, mom, why not make your womb your child’s first toy box? 🙂
Jennifer says
That last one made me laugh out loud! I love that he is so excited and concerned about “his” baby.
Kim says
Four is a great age – and so very quotable. I am glad I have my blog to note some of them, too.
Greta says
Ha! Okay, first of all….I didn’t know people ate Jordon almonds except at weddings. 😀 Kids are so funny…and how sweet he is about “his baby”!!

I love quotable kids! We think we’ll always remember, but writing them down sure does help!
Robbie says
His suggestion that you eat a baby toy—hilarious!!
Alison says
Oh I love them all, especially the last one!
Andrea says
Four is such a great age for quotes – you are doing the right thing by writing them down!
Galit Breen says
Love the book, and the list! 🙂
Sam says
Oh my, the sun comment was my favorite, too funny! That book is a great idea!
Lady Jennie says
Oh the last one! It’s just too precious!
I also liked the one about school.
Jackie says
Those are awesome….
The last one is my favorite… good luck eating that toy if he brings you one!
Leah says
Indeed, he says the craziest and cutest things of all time! I ove this list! I would have loved to have seen something like this with silly things that I said when I was little.
