People Are Sharing The Funniest Things Their Kids Have Ever Said

I love people sharing their favorite little compliments.

#1
My daughter and her neighbor friend spend a lot of the day sitting 6 feet away from the sidewalk, shouting compliments out at strangers who walk by. It's the right mood for these times.

Just overheard: "YOUR SHIRT MATCHES YOUR DOG AND I LIKE THAT ABOUT YOU!"

OH and complimenting masks is a major hit: “YOUR MASK COVERS *SO* MUCH OF YOUR FACE I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHAT YOU LOOK LIKE! GREAT JOB!”

I went to get my daughter from 3rd grade one day wearing a nice wool coat, heels and a hat. One of her buddies chirped up sweetly “you look nice, but why are you dressed like a spy?”

I was looking for a book on the bottom shelf and a kindergarten kiddo said “Wow, you can crawl around faster than my grandma.”

I took it as a compliment. I’m sure her grandma is excellent at crawling around looking for books.

One of my students once said 'Miss you look like an air hostess today' (fair call, I was wearing a jaunty scarf tied around my neck and a red jacket). I then hurriedly added, "obviously the boss air hostess!"

A decade ago I was getting dressed up for a party and my daughter told me that "I need to buy a new skirt because I'd grown out of this one". It was a mini skirt. Seemed very funny at the time.

About six months ago out of nowhere my 4-year-old daughter hugged my leg and said, “Daddy, you make everything happy.” I’ve been living off that ever since.
