Most years we go on holiday to Rhodes with my daughter and her family. Earlier this year my husband had to have an operation and so we couldn't go with them to Rhodes. I was trying to explain it to Lauren as she had looked forward to the holiday for months. She especially loves our swims together in the pool above. Here's what happened:
Lauren: Nanna, why can’t you come on holiday with us?
Me: Because granddad is poorly and he can’t come.
Lauren: Well why are you keeping him then?
Mmm...... Good question Lauren!

ReplyDeleteHow funny... Out of the mouth of the young one.
ReplyDeleteTell Lauren you are keeping him because you love him!
ReplyDeleteWe need to start a blog just for great things little ones say. Love these!
ReplyDeleteDo you remember Art Linkleiter's "Kids Say the Darndest Things?" This is one of those.
ReplyDeleteI also loved Harry "O". I miss those good old, clean, fun shows.
~hippo hugs~
How did I miss this hilarious post? LOL
ReplyDeleteI was reading your "introduction" on the right side of your blog and you said that you're on your next stage of life (something like that, because I can't get my link to go backwards)and that you hoped it wasn't your last stage.....I just turned 61 and I've been thinking that EVERY stage of my life was going to be my last.....now I'm "at the age" where.....well....arghhhh
ReplyDeleteSome questions don't have possible answer !!!!

Dear Winifred ~ What a cute comment from Lauren. I hope her grandpa didn't hear it. So cute.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comments and glad you enjoyed the jokes. I liked your story about "Our Father who art in Hebburn." Good one my friend.
Love, Merle.
"Why are you keeping him!" WOW...they are so innocent and she's already associated that if something doesn't work you get rid of it! LOL
ReplyDeleteHow did your husband take the news? LOL
Oh no. Poor grandad. I am sure you want to keep him even if Lauren doesn;t think so. Children come up with the wildest suggestions!
ReplyDeleteThat's why I love kids. They are so straight-forward and practical in their outlooks.
ReplyDeleteWe should write down all the funny and adorable things our little ones say - they are priceless. I do hope your husband is better now Winifred. A x
ReplyDeletehahaha, too funny, well heck yeah, why are you keeping him then...
ReplyDeletelove this!
I hope he is feeling better.
Hi Winifred ~ I am so glad you enjoyed the Workout Week joke. I read it again today and laughed again
ReplyDeleteHow that guy changed so much in a week. I am starting to feel better again, thank you Winifred for that.
Looking forward to having my brother and his friend for a few days.
Take care my friend, Love, Merle.
