			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Note: Welcome to week two of Things My Child Says. Thank you for all the great quotes and photos! I&#8217;ve decided to do something a bit different with the website, in order to generate a bit more conversation in the comments. </em></p>
<p><em>Rather than simply present three quotes and closing out the post, I am going to include anywhere from one to three quotes on a subject and then ask for your best related stories or quotes in the comments section. From time to time, I&#8217;ll pull the best quotes from the comments and make them their own post on the front page.</em></p>
<p><strong>On to this week&#8217;s quote.</strong>..</p>
<p><a href="http://www.thingsmychildsays.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/violet.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-19" title="violet" src="http://www.thingsmychildsays.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/violet-300x201.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="201" /></a>I recently made a rather lovely chicken pot pie, from scratch.  Straight out of the oven it looked just like a fruit pie and my 4 year old daughter Violet was pretty excited about eating pie for dinner.  She sat in her chair and anxiously watched me cut into the crust.</p>
<p>To say she was disappointed with the filling is an understatement.  She got up and came around for a closer look and said to me,</p>
<h3><strong>&#8220;That&#8217;s not how I like pie. It has soup under it!&#8221;</strong></h3>
<p>She did not eat pie for dinner that night.</p>

<p><em>Got a good dinner time or pie-related quote or story? Share it with others in the comments below.</em></p>
<p><em>Thank you for reading,</em></p>

<p>My son, Ryan, was 6 years old.  We were at a nice restaurant    eating lunch.  Earlier in the day my son had been snacking on a packet of    chewy, fruit-flavored candy called Gushers.  He must have tucked one of    the candies into his pocket.</p>
<p>Sitting in the restaurant and feeling    bored, Ryan searched his pockets for a toy to play with at the table and found    the candy piece.  He then loudly exclaimed with great alarm:</p>
<p><strong>“Uh-oh Mom, I&#8217;ve got a gusher in my  pants!”</strong><a href="http://www.susangreenecopywriter.com/"></a></p>

Several years ago, my then four-year-old son, &#8220;Felix&#8221;, was learning his colors in Pre-K.  Driving through a not-so-nice neighborhood in Houston, TX, Felix is pointing out objects and naming their color.  A Stop sign is &#8220;Look Mommy, red!&#8221;; an awning is &#8220;Look, Daddy, green!&#8221;</p>
<p>Bear in mind that it is hot as Hades in south Texas, and our car had no A/C, so the windows were down.  Pulling up to an intersection, we catch sight of a group of gang members standing on the corner.  Both stoplights are out of order and covered in plastic, so everyone is taking turns passing through.</p>
<p>My son looks up and exclaims, loudly,<br />
<strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>&#8220;Look Mommy, Blacks!  Blacks, Mommy.  Look, Blacks!&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>We didn&#8217;t wait our turn.</p>
