One of my friends used to mispronounce the word "trucK" with an "f" sound too -- lol!

When my sister was learning how to read, my parents made her read books allowed to us so she could practice. I remember her reading one about a "wagon made out of birches." She didn't know the word "birch" so she sounded it out . . . and came up with "b*tch"! So for the rest of the book she kept saying "b*tches" instead of "birches," and my parents thought it was so hilarious that they didn't correct her.

When I was little, I thought that everybody else in the world could read people's thoughts, and I was, for some reason, defective.

My sister and I had a habit of harassing all of our baby sitters. My parents are divorced and we lived with mom, so this was a very bad situation seeing that there was often need for a sitter. We used to go to opposite ends off the house and would both start simultaneously making a TON of noise, just to watch the poor frantic babysitter run back and forth between the two of us. On another occasion, one brought her boyfriend along (!) so my sister and I chased him around the house and hair-sprayed his VERY hairy legs (pretty creative for an 8 year old). My personal favorite was when we discovered if you shook soda cans, they exploded when you opened them. Thus, our favorite way to test a new sitter was wildly shaking the can for about 10 minutes before they arrived and then the mintue mom was out the door - 'Umm, {name here} could you open this?' Then stand back with innocent eyes. We actually sent one home crying.

I hope my kids aren't like me

When I was about 3, my father took my mother out to dinner for her birthday. I was a fairly well-behaved 3-year-old (usually!) so they brought me along.

At the end of the meal, a few of the waiters came out with a piece of cake with a candle and sang "Happy Birthday". My dad and I joined in, the people at nearby tables applauded, you know the drill... Well, I stood up and announced "My mommy is ___ years old!!" More applause from the other restaurant guests, while my mother turned a lovely shade of crimson

When I was like 6 years old I moved to a new neighborhood. I was playing outside and I met these adults(it was a few adults) anyway I introduced myself and then said,"you know what?- my parents are taking a shower together--you can meet them later."
When I was little like two I was addicted to Michael Jackson. My mom said I would point at all black people even women and say Michael Jackson.

LOL, that's hilarious! That reminds me of another story. When I was 2, I was addicted to Soul Train. My parents would watch it in the living room and I would stand up and dance around in my diapers!

When I was about 2, my biological father was still around. One day, being the wonderful (sarcasm...) man that he is/was, he was going to go out on the town and leave me and my mom at home.

He went into the bathroom for a long time. I needed to use the bathroom and told him so. But, his getting ready to go out took priority over my needing to use the bathroom...

Being the assertive, charming little spunk that I am, I decided to REALLY piss him off.

So, I went into the living room where my little playhouse stood. I went inside and used the bathroom, since he would not allow the bathroom to be a viable option.

Then, right before he left, I called him in to see inside my playhouse

and the little "mud" pie I left for him...

Biological father was NOT amused...

My mom says I rolled with laughter after getting him to crawl inside that playhouse....

My mom and I were in a drug store, and I saw athletic supporters near all the ankle and knee braces. The packages had pictures of the products on them. For the life of me I couldn't figure out what the athletic supporters were supporting. Of course, I very loudly, so Momma could hear me, asked her what athletic supporters supported. We left the store soon after that!

Couldn't pronounce my own name, so I called myself "Messy Ann Kelsey".

Allowed my parents to snap a picture of me when I was about 3 completely naked except for one of my dad's Army combat boots. He STILL threatens to bring it out and show it to anyone.

When my dad and late step-mother were getting married, I stood up as the ceremony was starting and said, apparantely fairly loudly, "That's my daddy!"

When I was four and a half and still living in Russia, I needed to have open heart surgery. After that, I needed to periodically go back to the hospital for check ups. I really hated doing that, so to bribe me into being a good girl, my mummy bought me a new dress. Lace, ruffles all over the place, the whole works. So we get into the doctor's office, and there were maybe five or six people standing there. One of the doctors comes up to me and goes in this really condescending voice "ok hunny, now we need you to take your dress off so we could listen to your heart" getting ready thinking I was going to put up a fight. Instead I said "of course I do. I don't want your old, dirty, instrument ruining my nice, new dress." All of the doctors started laughing and my mom just looked so mortified. She said "I'm sorry, she didn't really mean it," and I was like, "no I did."

In 1st grade, the guidence counselors at my elementary school came to our class to talk about drugs and alcohol.. being the brilliant child that I was (

) I told him that my mom drank and drove (he asked!!!).

Laster that night, my mom got a phone call, saying the principal and the counselors wanted to have a meeting with her. The next day she met with them, they told her that I said said in class that she drank and drove.. she was mortified!! After they asked her about it, she asked them if I had said what she drank while she was driving, of course, they said no.

My mother informed them that she only drank COFFEE while driving.

(she still hasn't let me live that one down..)

ETA: I removed the story from my best friend, I apologize for offending anyone, it was completely unintentional.

Can't remember anything that I *Said* but my mom likes to tell me about the time when I think I was about maybe 3 I decided to put popcorn.. (unpopped kernals) up my nose and in my ears (I guess I thought it was funny ? ) well... I couldn't get it out... parents had to take me to the hospital and get the popcorn out of my ears by flushing water through them...

when i was in first grade our furnace broke and they were in the process of fixing it (the company) but it was taking a long time b/c we had to get a whole new system put in.... so it was the middle of winter and we didnt' have any heat- so we had one of those old ghetto portable heaters in the bathroom (we also had a wood stove so that kept the rest of the house semi-warm) so one day my teacher asked us to write in our journals about our favorite places and i wrote "i like the bathroom because its warm in there" ! my teacher called my mom in for a conference and she had to try to explain what was going on- my teacher thought my parents were like abusing me lol

my first song was "born in the usa" b/c my moms favorite singer was bruce springsteen so when i was like 3 i would toddle around singing "born u.s.a.! born u.s.a.!"

i was playing around my moms desk while she was in the other room when i was like 1 and a half.. i managed to climb up on the rolly desk chair and climb on to the side panel that pulls out of the front part.... i was just using hta part to hold myself up- and then the chair rolled away from me- and i grabbed onto the desk and hung there- all the sudden i started saying "heeeelllppppp meeee" "heeeelllppppp meeee" they were my first words! my mom runs into the room with her best friend- and she started laughing so hard that she could barelly come over and pick me up! lol thanks a lot mom

My parents taught me the names of body parts when I was about three. For some reason, I couldn't say "belly button" - I called it a belly butt. We went to Pizza Hut one night for dinner, and I promptly stood up, pulled up my dress, and proclaimed loudly to the whole restaurant, "BELLY BUTT!" while pointing to my navel.
