She used to also call the refrigerator "beep beep" becuase she would always be in her walker in front if it we would say "beep beep" and push her out of the way so we could get in it..so should would just go to the fridge and say beep beep.

Yeah but then Milk would come back from the grave and ban you. We are "triditional" too. The more your willing the less likely you'll have to. Same kid that used to "F U" was a serious biter when he was little. First time he bit my youngest (around 2 at the time) he came running off the porch crying "Tyler ate my arm, Tyler ate my arm" It happened several more times until I "gently" touched his mouth in full view of his parents and told him to expect it every time he bit. For a long time my youngest reminded me of Rainman with his book of things people did to him. "and Tyler ate my arm and Tyler ate my belly and Tyler ate my other arm..." He'd go through all of them and show you where it happened. Its funny now but back then it ticked me off bigtime. I'm a stay at home dad and ended up watching him and his siblings when the mom went back to work. He's a changed man these days. He learned a whole new outlook on life coming here 5 days a week. Haven't watched him in about a year but he remembers. Of course now he breaks my heart and tells me he loves me and wishes I was his dad.

When my daughter was just about 4 we found a huge bullfrog in our backyard with no water around. Decided to take the frog to the lake and let it go. We put the frog in a bucket with some water and drove to the lake. My daughter picked up the frog out of the bucket where we noticed a giant frog poop, she then took it to the lake and let it go. Afterwards on the way home she stuck her thumb in her mouth and I told her to get it out cause she touched the frog & dirty water...she looked at me like I was crazy and said..."but mom, I don't taste any frogness..."

Bump for more kids stories.

I went on a little Bluegrass festival outing with my daughter who is now 32 but was maybe 3-4 at the time. This was just a day trip thing. We had a van and a cooler full of drinks and such. Like in the OP story, she kept saying "I smelled it"...over and over, off and on. I responded with the typical "smelled what" several times.

Well, as you would suspect, kids are really pretty capable at a young age, I was kinda embarressed and laughing when I figured out that the cooler stopper was out, and the lid was open and the "Ice Melted" all over the back of the van

Fotunately you caught it right away. The fits buts thing drove us crazy. Now I need more fits buts for a cam and stall converter. lol

You still remember that after all these years. That's what is so cool about them.
