Cool UPDATE!!! Waiting to hear results of an audition, so entertain me UPDATE!!

I am a bit nervous about hearing the results of my audition for Diary of Anne Frank.

Please Share your stories of funny things your kids have said and/or done.


At Christmas my Great Niece who is 2 was unwrapping gifts. The last thing we open is the card with cash in it from my dad. She opened it and yelled..."Mommy, Grandpa Bob got me a page!!"

UPDATE: Finally heard the results after call backs and other such delaying factors!

I am going to play Mrs Van Daan..I am very suprised but happy

Thanks for all the well wishes!

My youngest turned 6 this past Sunday and she got a HUGE case of make-up and stuff from a classmate. So of course her and her older sister just had to put some on. They got all dolled up and after a bit it was time for bed, so I told them they had to wash their faces because I didn't want them going to bed wearing the make-up. My oldest asked why and I said that it will cause pimples. Well, my youngest was in the bathroom scrubbing her hands and came out crying. I asked why and she said she was trying to get the nail polish off because she didn't want pimples!

Good luck on the auditions!

My 11 year old son (who is autistic) told that that when he grows up he wants to work for Best Buy and be part of the Geek Squad! He would fit right in!

Good luck on awaiting your news. Let us know.

When oldest DS was about 3, he loved to help me clean (that DID NOT last long...). Well, I was using Comet or Ajax cleanser to clean the toilets (it was in a green can like container). I went to do something else, and when I came back I noticed the fridge door was opened, so I went to see what they had. Oldest DS had gotten the container of Kraft Parmesan cheese out of the fridge(in the green can) and used it to clean the toilet. He even had the toilet brush and was just scrubbing away....

When DD was about 2 we were at Sams. I looked down at the meats I looked back at her and she had whipped her dress off and took off running down the aisle dragging her dress and laughing so hard. She got all the way to the end of the store before DH or I could catch her. I was too out of breath and laughing too hard myself to even be mad at her. She could never get her dress off that well when it was bath time. I wish I had the security footage to show her when she gets older.

HI Becca!

I wondered what you have been up To!!
Let me know when you find out how it went


On to my story

Our power went out a while back and we were trying to figure out if it was just us or the whole street.
My son looked outside and a car drove by and he said well mom, it must just be us, that car had its lights on.

When I explained how babies were made in a more factual way to my oldest who may have been around 8 or 9, his eyes got big and he said "You mean you've done that three times?"

Thanks for sharing! Keep them coming!!

Still have not heard. They are having trouble casting the men and are waiting to post results until then.

I am actually really hoping for Meip..she has been a hero of mine since I first read the book in Jr High. The director is actually cosidering me more for Mrs Frank because she liked my reading. I will enjoy playing either part, but REALLY want Meip.

When spending a week-end at my daughter's, I was in the shower and my 5 year old grandson kept coming in and "peeking" at me.
After chasing him out several times, I finally managed to get dressed for his final appearance, and quoting the song, I said, " Grandmother just doesn't look good naked anymore."
He very sweetly said , "You look good naked to me, Grandmother."
I told him he deserved a hug for saying that and gave him a big hug.
Later he heard me telling my DD the story and quickly said, "I was joking, I just wanted a hug"!!!
What a quick comical mind for a 5 year old!

Our 8 year old DS was telling someone about the Wii he and sister got for Christmas. While explaing how one can customize facial features on their Mii's, he told another child's father, "My dad even put a pimple on his face!" It was a mole. DH and I are still laughing about that.

When my youngest ds was about 3, hubby was teasing me while I was trying to get lunch for everyone, so I told him to stop pulling my leg. Later that day, ds started pulling my leg. When I told him to stop, he said he wanted to pull my leg because daddy wasn't supposed to do it. He was teasing hubby with it. Hubby & I had a good laugh with it.

Smile Heard some good advice

Congratulations to BeccaRose and Good Luck to DollyDeal!!!

My daughter was in many regional productions and each and every audition brought about nervousness and second-guessing. I heard a great quote that we used then and continue to use:

"Rejection is God's protection." And we have found that true on many many occasions.

That is a very helpful quote! I will try to keep that in mind.
