Tiny Talk Tuesday helps parents focus on one of the many joys of parenting - the funny things that our little ones (and sometimes big ones) have to say.
Join in the fun and record the Tiny Talk overheard in your house! Publish a post on your blog and link us to the laughs. Then be sure to link to the blog carnival on this post so more bloggers can join in the fun.
The guidelines can be found here if you need them.

We took the girls to Dutch Wonderland as a surprise on Sunday. It was a birthday present for both of them. They were both told that they were going somewhere special for their birthday, but they didn't know where or when.
Needless to say, we had a great time. Their gracious hearts were so evident that day as we heard...
T (age 5): This is my BEST day ever.
K (age 6): This isn't my best ever, but it is really really good.
T: It's my best!
K: You might have a better one one day.
Mom: I think she means that it is her best so far.
K: Oh. well then it is my best day too!
_________
K: Thank you mommy and daddy!
_________
K: Thank you mommy for this day!

A man working there got us cotton candy even after the park closed because we had not been able to find it all day...
Mom: Isn't it nice when someone does something so nice for you?
T: Yes. Thank you mommy.
Mom: Not me, T. That man is the one who brought us the cotton candy.
T: But you brought us here.

Dutch Wonderland happens to be located in a farming area...
K: (getting out of the car) EWWWWWW...
Daddy: It smells like cows.
K: It smells like bad cows!

D (age 2) has a little flap book in his bedroom about a shepherd who loses a sheep. Each page asks if the little lambs is ___________ (behind the basket, in the bed...). On the last page, the little lamb is found in the garden...
Mom: (reading the last page) Was the little lamb in the garden?
D: (lifts the flap and sees the lamb) No. That's a sheep!

T (age 5) put her toys under one of the empty plastic bins in the room."Look mom! They are frozen in ice!"

love all the DW comments!
I haven't been to Dutch Wonderland since I was a kid. Glad the kids had a good time.
Tell K that smell isn't "bad cows" but fresh country air.
ooo love those gracious hearts! Makes you so proud when you do something like that and they totally get how special it is! Love D's comment!
Sounds like the girls had a wonderful time!! I love the "ewww" phrase!! yes, farms stink, but tere is so much to learn from them!
How fun!! And such happy, happy hearts!!
Love D's comment about the sheep {and also the bad cow comment from K!!}.
They are adorable! Nothing like a grateful heart. Our kids often countdown in the van and yell at the top of their lungs, "THANK YOU, MOMMY AND DADDY!" I wonder what the car next to us must be thinking:)
Ok...so the manure is a little strong and the buggies slow ya down around here. But we like it and we like Dutch Wonderland too! Glad the girls had soooo much fun there!
