From the mouths of babes...

A (boy I babysit): H, you know how I don't like sausages but most people do.
Me: Yes darling
A: What happens if a horse grows up not liking grass? Some of them must hate grass like I hate sausages?
Me: Uh...........

I suppose it would be wrong to say that you can see what happens to the horses who don't like grass: they never get any bigger and are stuck as miniature shetlands.

Haha, they say the funniest things don't they?

I remember when my friend came round with her then boyfriend. My daughter was about 3, she said to him " You got a lot of spots on your face" He did.

I was tempted to say "thats how ponies are created" but thought his mum might go mad LOL!

Trouble is they pick up on things you never expect them to. My nephews were taught by my Grandma "It's one of God's creatures" about the rabbits that their mother hated eating the veg patch and that wanting to kill the rabbits was wrong because they belonged to God. Then they went to school and were told that ALL creatures belong to God - right from the smallest insect to the largest mammal. Cue two little boys who wouldn't walk on the grass because they might inadvertently squash one of God's creatures. It took ages to take them anywhere as they were terrified they might step on an ant or a worm even on the pavement.
