As it happens while living, occasionally a deep thought is verbalized from any of the five kids, and sometimes the parents. Lately we have been talking about deep thoughts and some of the things that are said that are so descriptive, or at least indicative of our family. So for posterity's sake, I have decided to write just a few of these down.
Granted, there is nothing earth-shaking here. Just thoughts expressed in and around our home.
"That's so random."
I think this phrase is said by my eldest daughter nearly daily, and for good reason! There are so many random things said and done in our home. She, as a teenager, finds the things a 5 year old, or a 41 year old, doing and saying to be completely random. Well sometimes they are, other times, its just teen-itis.
"Dog loves you."
I often refer to our coon hound Millie simply as "dog". One day Millie came up and wanted attention from my son. He was petting her and I said "Dog loves you." Maybe its just me but I think there is a deep thought in there when you think about it.
"Small children on a trampoline are static in motion."
Think about it a moment, if you need to.
"I don't want a tornado to come around."
Said by our official family worrier, the 9 year old. Surely I am not the only one that sees the ironic humor in this. She finds something to worry about daily.
"Pimp my tree."
Said by me in regard to the high pollen count this spring. Think about it.
"Hound dogs smell!"
Its just the way it is. They can and do smell. I have a coon hound to prove it.
"That vacuum sucks!"
A winner of the most obvious award.
"If scissors could run, should they?"
Think about it. I ask this of people I meet and I either get odd looks or a confident and quick answer.
