many people seem to enjoy my Sasha stories, so I decided to formalize them in a "Sasha Quote of the Day." Every day I will strive to add yet another morsel of wisdom, wit, or hilarity from my 5 year old.
Today's Quote:
"That was good fish you made Papa." Papa: "Thank you. It was chicken."

I'm going to do it, I will. I have to say it, "Aww, that is so cute. It sounds like something I would say when I was just a lad."
There see, now you've done it. You made me say it.

You know, the funny part was when I was visiting Telp a couple (few?) months ago. I brought up the topic on how we hadn't heard from you on Sasha in quite a while. Dude, all I can say is that we both believe you have the coolest kid ever.
Posted by Evie3217 (Member # 5426) on :
That's great. Sasha should be on the show "kids say the darndest thing."
Posted by Telperion the Silver (Member # 6074) on :
So cute! Posted by Tante Shvester (Member # 8202) on :
Yeah, yeah, the kid is cute and all, but I worry about the pressure that his father is putting on him to produce a new cute quote every day. It'd be just awful Sasha cracked under the pressure, rebelled against parental expectations, and became decidedly un-cute.
So please, Dan, be careful and sensitive to your little cutie! I'd hate to see him crumble under the pressure.

Don't worry Tante, what he doesn't know won't hurt me. He won't know about these quotes for years.
"I brush my teeth real fast. I have horses in my mouth and we race."

Words can't express how glad I am the internet wasn't around (in an easy, user-friendly form) when I was little. But then, I wasn't nearly so cute as Sasha.
Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :
"Would you be my valentine's day Papa?" said Sasha as he handed me his homemade Valentine's card.
"Yes I will. What are those?"
"That's Momma's heart and your heart in our house."
"But what is that on the hearts?"
"Those are shields, to protect them from those arrows."

"1,2,3,4,5...."
When your children learn the magic and powers of numbers nothing is more exciting.
"11,12,13,14...."
When they get past those nasty teen numbers (Why don't we make life easier and change their names to one-teen, twoteen, threeteen, or teenyone, teenytwo etc.) and discover the pattern that is our numerical system, you rejoice.
"78,79,80,81..." "101,102,103,104...."
Somewhere about the third time they decide to count past 326 you are ready to pull your hair out and scream.
Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
I don't know. I have a fair amount of patience. After it got annoying, I would probably just start counting with them. Only in another language or something.

I think this will be one of my favorite threads, if it isn't already.
Perhaps it should be declared a landmark after a year or so?

To his parents: "I want to be a firefighter when I grow up. What do you want to be when you grow up?"
Posted by signal (Member # 6828) on :
So, what do you want to be? Posted by Raia (Member # 4700) on :
I remember one time my dad and I went to visit an old high school friend of his... and her four year old son ran up to us and asked "do you two have any kids?"
We had no idea how to respond... it was adorable.

"I drew this picture of the Wookie Space Ship all by myself. The idea just came right out of my brain. I love my brain."
Do you love your brain?
PS Signal, I'm not gonna tell.

I love his brain too!

Sasha, playing soldier.... "Hit two three four, hit, two, three, four. Horrid March!"
He's got a lot to learn about soldiering, I think.

Sounds like he's got it down pretty accurately!

Sasha--Singing, "Bill the bob-ber, Bill the bob-ber" (instead of Bob the Builder Song)
What does that mean? Ask Bob.
Posted by Telperion the Silver (Member # 6074) on :
Gah! So cute! Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :
Sasha, telling a long involved story he's making up on the way home..."and then in came the Wookie-Dragon. It was the biggest dragon of them all. I mean it could destroy how cities, lots of them...."
Ok, this isn't that cute or deep, but you have to admit...
Wookie-Dragons.
I mean, that is about the most awesome thing one can imagine.
Every nerd cell in my body smiled when he said that.
Posted by Eaquae Legit (Member # 3063) on :
That's awesome.

"Papa, I fooled all the kids at school today. I told them I got this shirt...from Target."
I stared. It was an average Batman shirt. "You told them you got it at Target--and that is a good thing?" He was bragging about the name brand shirt--and the name brand was Target?
Sasha, laughing, "yes."
"Look over to there." He turned his head. "Now look down." He did. "No, Mom, his neck doesn't look red."
She swacked me upside the head when Sasha wasn't looking.

Kawaii desu ne! You should post a pic of the cutie.

"Yo wa Palpatine, I'm gonna git cha."
He was Samuel Jackson the way he should have played a Jedi. If he would have ended the phrase with "Sucka" I would have fallen down laughing.

Rofl.
Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :
This is more of a Momma quote:
Momma, chasing the pantsless Sasha, "Come back her my Little Tush."
Sasha stopped, turned to her, put his hands on his hips and proclaimed. "I am not a Little Tush. You are a Little Tush!"
"What?" asked Momma, take aback by the comment.
"You're a Little Tush" Sasha responded defiantly.
Momma smiled and gave him a great big hug. "Thank you."
Sasha was confused.
Pappa was hiding his laughter so as not to get hit.
Posted by KarlEd (Member # 571) on :
LOL, that one will probably puzzle him for years!
Posted by Earendil18 (Member # 3180) on :
That's great! I agree with whoever said "Kawaii desu"
Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :
This one is mine:
In a nice Italian Restaurant, my voice echoes in its best demanding voice..."Sasha, if you count to infinity I'm taking you right out to the car without your dinner!"
Posted by erosomniac (Member # 6834) on :
LOL.
Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :
Said in a perfectly calm and ordinary voice. "Momma, when you are off next week and we are together, don't yell at me. I'm allergic to being yelled at."
Posted by signal (Member # 6828) on :
Awww, poor kid. Me too.
Posted by Evie3217 (Member # 5426) on :
I think I'm allergic to being yelled at too. I'm going to have to remember that one.
Dan, I really want to meet Sasha, because he just seems like the coolest person ever!
Posted by Blayne Bradley (Member # 8565) on :
I'm afraid I share Shasha's puzzlement, what's a little tush?
Posted by Princess Leah (Member # 6026) on :
tush=keister. Hope that clears it up Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :
Definition: Tush--toosh The backside of your front. The part most closely connected with a seat. "Back" as in "Baby's got Back" One's sitter. Preferred target of kicking, pinching, and prat-falls. When one butts in line....ok I won't go there. The part of your person handed to you by the big sober dude you challenge to a fight when you are totally drunk. No if or ands, however...
Posted by Blayne Bradley (Member # 8565) on :
i got that part I'm more confused now on why its a complement.
Posted by Uprooted (Member # 8353) on :
Blayne, the word "little" associated with any Mama's tush would make her happy! Posted by Blayne Bradley (Member # 8565) on :
oooooooooh now i understand.
Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :
Sasha wants to type something for everyone:
jhgutreyhunhibrb uygfgtfyuibtyrtygrgur
Thank you.
Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :
OK, a better Sasha quote.
****SPOILER ALERT********* *****THE POSSIBLE TRUTH OF A MYTHICAL CREATURE IS DISCUSSED BELOW*************************
Last night, I stood in the hallway waiting for Sasha to go to sleep. He kept playing around in bed. I picked up my cel phone and pretended to dial.
Me: Hello, Sandman. Sasha's here and needs an extra big helping. OK. I'll tell him you are on the way.
Silence from the bed.
A pause, then...
Sasha: Papa....
Me (grumble): Yes Sasha.
Sasha: Is the Sandman real?
Me (Mental curse): He's, um, real in our heart.
Sasha: Yes, but is he real.
Me (Bigger mental curse as the whole "in our heart" routine goes down the drain. Now, lie or truth...destroy illusion or trust. Deep breath then). No Sasha. He is not real.
Sasha (silent for a moment): Oh...Then how does the sand get in our eyes?
Me (Next internal debate--science or sleep. Which is more important? While I debate Sasha answers.)
Sasha: I know how the sand gets in our eyes. Magic!
Me (releived): Yes Sasha--Magic. Now go to sleep.
Posted by JennaDean (Member # 8816) on :
Cute. No Sandman, but magic!
quote:Now, lie or truth...destroy illusion or trust.
What, you haven't learned my favorite answer to Tooth Fairy-type questions?
"What do you think?"
Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :
It was an hour and a half after his bed time. If I would have asked him what he thought, he would of told me, and told me, and told me. Then it would have been two and a half hours after his bedtime.
Posted by Kwea (Member # 2199) on :
lol
Posted by larisse (Member # 2221) on :
Dan, Sasha is wise beyond his years. I hope he never loses his sense of magic and wonder.
Posted by Tante Shvester (Member # 8202) on :
I told my kid that the tooth fairy takes children's teeth and uses them to make piano keys. She makes the black keys from the kids who don't brush. I also warned him not to ever sleep with the pillow on top of his head, because sometimes she gets confused and takes an eye instead.
He always thought this was a riot, and at age 15, still repeats the story.
Posted by Tatiana (Member # 6776) on :
Oh so THAT'S what she does with them all! I couldn't imagine why she would want them!
Posted by Swampjedi (Member # 7374) on :
Just don't let Mr Teatime get them those teeth...
Posted by Jeesh (Member # 9163) on :
I was told she was building a castle...
Where does she get all that money though? Posted by Uprooted (Member # 8353) on :
Jeesh -- What do you think?

Duh. She sells pianos.

"I am Captain Carib Bean"
The later...
"I am stronger whenever I touch my sword."
(What boy doesn't?)
Honestly, doesn't that sound like something Captain Jack would say? (or, I am stronger whenever you touch my sword, but close enough).
Posted by Darth_Mauve (Member # 4709) on :
Wow. Memories.
The wife wanted some cute quotes, and this is what I found.

You know that could make a pretty cool cartoon show for kids. Captain Cari-Bean fighting pirates whose magical sword gives him Giants strength.
