Mr.Bitts



If there is something I absolutely love about four-year-olds, it is their uncanny ability to make one laugh by the hilarious things they have to say. Completely in earnest, and unbeknownst to them, they have a way of looking at the world that is so refreshing and fun. Each time they share one of these gems, I try to record it on our white erasable board, (although I'm realizing that perhaps I ought to have a better form of keeping track of them. . . let's hope this is a better forum for that.) Besides, I like to share in the wealth.

Bitty has had some fantastic quotables lately that make me just want to squeeze him. Here's just a few that give you a feel for his wry personality:

  • After everyone was done showering before going to church Sunday morning, Bitty noticed Pearly-Q's chest and observed:
    “Daddy, you kind of look like you have eyes on your pecks.”
  • Recently when I tucked him into bed for his nap, I nuzzled up to him and nibbled on his cheeks and ears, to which Bitty replied, "Mom, when you nibble on my ear it turns me frozen."
  • Another tucking in bed moment--this time I was helping him clean out Bitty's nose: "Mom, last night I had some crusties in my nose and looke like Grape Nuts! Did you want to eat them? Hahahahaha!"
  • When Pearly-Q took Bitty on some "special time" they drove past McDonalds, to which Bitty responded by asking his dad, "What was it we ate together there Dad, that was so yummy with the ice cream and the chocolate?" Dad responded, "Do you mean a hot fudge sundae, Bitts?" "Yeah--Dad, what day is it?" Pearly-Q answered, "It's Monday." Bitty thought for moment and then requested, "Dad, can go to McDonalds right now and have a hot fudge Monday?"
Got to love Mr. Bitts.
