straight from the mouth of babes

well not exactly, but young enough to make innocent, disarming comments.

#1 Years back, I told my son, "I bought you three socks." He asked, "One has no pair?" Stupid me. Should have said, "three pairs."

#2 Husband teaches reading to grade 7 boys. Their topic was analogies. One smart aleck, er, boy said, "Norman is to Black as Redford is to White." Cute...

#3 Same boy (#2) asked, "How does Chin Chin Gutierrez look?" when informed that she would be their guest speaker. He then proceeded to draw a woman's face with two chins.
