...kids you know) have said or done? When we were little, my Mum used to get my sisters and I to stick out our tongues so she could "check if we had told a lie". We thought that something would show up on our tongues or something if we told a whopper but my Mum would in fact judge whether we had lied based on whether we showed it to her straight away or hesitated. One afternoon, my sister who was 6 or so at the time had lied about something (I can't remember exactly what it was) and my Mum said "OK, poke out your tongue and we'll see." My sister slowly and hesitantly stuck it out and my Mum was like "Oh, there it is. A lie! You WERE lying!" and my sister replied with "NO, THAT WAS FROM THE LAST LIE I TOLD. I DIDN'T TELL A LIE THIS TIME. MY TONGUE JUST ISN'T WORKING PROPERLY!" Ha ha ha!
On my 5th birthday, we had family over in the loungeroom when my Mum asked me if I'd like to bring the bottle of Lemonade that was on the bench and specifically told me NOT to shake it and twist the cap. Being a curious kid, I was like "Oh, what the heck could go wrong?" so I shook it like there's no tomorrow, twisted the cap about half a turn and- *Pshhh!* The bottle flew out of my hands, slammed onto the tiles and began spinning in circles, spraying sticky lemonade on the floor, the drawers, the benchtop, the oven and underneath it - EVERYWHERE. I thought there was a monster in the bottle so I ran out of the kitchen screaming! Mum and the others was laughing too hard to bother giving me a consequence, LMAO!
My last one involves my OTHER sister who was 3 at the time and was waiting in the Doctor's waiting room with my Mum. She was just minding her own business, playing with the books/toys, when a very obese man waddled in and sat down opposite them. My sister then looks up, gasps, turns to my Mum while pointing at the man and says "Oh, my gosh! Look at that great big fat man! Isn't he FAT? He's the fattest man I've ever seen in my life! Are you looking?!" While my Mum was trying to quiet her down and tell her that it's rude to say things like that, she shakes her head, eyes wide, and says "Mama, you're not listening! He's so huge! Huger than a hippopotamus! Can you believe it?!" Mind you, there were at least 5 other people in the waiting room with the three of them. I don't even know how my Mum talked her way out of that one LOL . . .
