  • Kids say the funniest things

    I got this as a forward from a friend...but I thought it was so funny that I'd post it here:

    A first grade teacher collected well known proverbs. She gave each child
    in her class the first half of a proverb and asked them to come up with the remainder of the proverb. It's hard to believe these were actually done by first graders, but there are some good ones nonetheless their insight may surprise you.

    Better to be safe than......................punch a 5th grader.
    Strike while the ............................bug is close.
    It's always darkest before..................Daylight Savings Time.
    Never underestimate the power of............termites.
    You can lead a horse to water but...........how?
    Don't bite the hand that....................looks dirty.
    No news is..................................impossible.
    A miss is as good as a......................Mr.
    You can't teach an old dog new..............math.
    If you lie down with dogs, you'll...........stink in the morning.
    Love all, trust.............................me.
    The pen is mightier than the................pigs.
    An idle mind is.............................the best way to relax.
    Where there's smoke there's.................pollution.
    Happy the bride who.........................gets all the presents.
    A penny saved is............................not much.
    Two's company, three's......................the Musketeers.
    Don't put off till tomorrow what............you put on to go to bed.
    Laugh and the whole world laughs with you, cry and ..... You have to
    blow your nose.
    There are none so blind as........................Stevie Wonder.
    Children should be seen and not.............spanked or grounded.
    If at first you don't succeed...............get new batteries.
    When the blind leadeth the blind............get out of the way.
    And the favorite .....
    Better late than ...........................pregnant.

    That's funny Kris--thanks for sharing I needed to read something "light" today!!!

    I loved "an idle mind is the best way to relax"--that sounds like good advice!
    Awake is the new sleep!

      That was very cute. My favorite is "A penny saved is not much." My thoughts exactly.

      Actually I have a story from when my son was 3. He was just potty trained and we were in the library in the middle of winter which meant lots of clothes. He had asked to go potty and I took him. Fifteen minutes and a trillion snaps, buttons and zippers later we emerged. Not more than 5 minutes had passed when he wanted to go again. I'm like "What???? We just went!" But he said this time he had to go #2 (if you know what I mean). Not wanting to do the snaps, buttons, etc I say, "We're ready to go home now - can't you just hold it til we get home?" My poor son then looks at me and says meekly, "In my hand?"

      After stifling my laugh, I took him.
