The language of Rhett

I have been collecting the funny things that Rhett says for awhile now. He is at that age when everything he says is just too cute and want to remember those cute things for a lifetime so I'm blogging about them. I'm sure this will be one of many blogs of the language of Rhett Douglas Franklin but for the past month this is what we've heard and snickered at. I have to admit it is a lot funnier in person but since I'm the one who saw it happen I can remember the circumstances, the voice inflections and the facial expressions of him and that makes it all the more precious to me. (My mom did add a few to the list since she spends time with him while I work - such a blessing!)

Discussion about love and my grandparents:

Rhett, who do you love? "Mommy and Daddy"

Rhett, what is love? "Jesus"

Rhett, where is grammy JoJos and Bapa Pouie? "Dancing with Jesus"

Are they having fun with Jesus? "Yes"

Are you going to see them again someday? "Yes"

Where are you going to see them? "Disneyland"

One of many discussions with his sister:

 

One day in the car Rhett nochalantly says to Addison in the car, "Addison, fairies do NOT have tails, dogs have tails."

Conversation between Addison and Mimi:

Addison was showing Mimi how she could cross her eyes. Mimi said, "do you know what is going to happen if you keep them crossed for too long?"

 Rhett pipes up and says, "You'll stink for days!"

Random:

Rhett steals away Addison's stuffed dog one day, runs down the hall saying, "I need her, Jesus loves her"

"Mom, eating a big chicken will make me strong."

"I'm strong like Jesus"

"When I'm bigger I'm going to tell Jesus that a monster is chasing me and he will make it go away."

"One time a lion growled in my tummy"

"Addie is Captain Hook and I'm Mr. Smee"

He calls Punky Brewster - Grumpy Brewster

When I told him the purpose of  firetruck was to help people and put out the fires in their houses he said, "no, people will just get their swords out and fight the fire."

Talking to his truck, "You are taking a time out right here, and you'll never get out" (don't think we've EVER said that to him - so don't get the wrong idea)

Addie was talking about wearing a fancy dress for church and Rhett says, "Yeah, I'm going to wear a fancy boy skirt too."

My mom was watching him and he was staring out the window at some ladies walking in the rain. They had were using umbrellas and Rhett said, "Hey, those ladies have a . . . . . .a . . . . . . .a . . . . . . a tent on their heads." Apparently he couldn't remember the word umbrella.

In Walmart he runs up to the stand with the pillow pets and grabs the yellow duck. He gives it a huge hug and says that he wants it. I let him know that we don't have extra money to buy one of those right now so he is going to have to wait. And Rhett says, "but he wants to go home with me." Too cute!!! I wish at that moment that I could justify spending $19.88 on the thing but it wasn't in the budget. I told him that he was going to have to put him back and Rhett says, "he is going to cry and cry because he can't come home with me." (No - we did not leave with the duck but he already knows what strings to pull with momma because I have never wanted to buy him something that bad before)

I am going to keep another ongoing post about the funny things that he says and post it again at a later date. I want to remember them forever.
