The following thoughts come from you, our readers. Each month, we print the best ones – and one lucky youngster wins a special prize.

By our O.C. offspringPublished: October, 2008

While I was away at a Mommy’s Day Out, my husband took the kids to LEGOLAND. The ticket agent asked, “How many?” and my 5-year-old replied, “Three tickets please. We have a wife, too, but she’s on vacation.” – Matthew, 5, of Las Flores

While I was breastfeeding the baby, her sister said, “Since that breast has milk, does the other one have orange juice?  – Gypsy, then 5, of Anaheim

I was sitting outside watching my daughter and son play with other kids in the neighborhood. My daughter said, “Mom, I feel like a teenager when I play outside when it’s dark!” – Gabriella, 5, of Anaheim

My husband was listening to the news on the radio while driving our 5-year-old to school. They were talking about Barak Obama and John McCain, and their political platforms. After listening to what each candidate stands for, my husband turned to my son and jokingly asked, “Who would you vote for?” My son said, “OBAMA.” My husband was surprised my son was listening and asked why. He replied, “He believes in change, and I want more change to put into my piggy bank.” – Conor, 5, of Costa Mesa

I told my visiting 7-year-old nephew that he would have to wait to meet my husband, because he was out back in his “man-cave” – a place where men sometimes go to relax and be alone after working hard. The next morning, he raced to the back door and said, “Is he still in his manhole?” – Tyler, 7, of Laguna Hills

While standing in a doorjamb during last July’s 5.8 earthquake, 3-year-old Bronwyn told her 1-year-old sister, “We’re going for a wiggle.” – Bronwyn, 3, of Irvine

We were watching the Olympics Opening Ceremony on TV. When the giant scrolling platform was unfurled, my 6-year-old asked me what it was. I explained that scrolls were papers our ancestors had written on before the invention of notebooks. He said, “So, you must have written on scrolls when you were a kid, right?” – Caleb, 6, of Ladera Ranch

I was teaching my 6-year-old about saying “No kissing” to girls who might want to smooch him during recess. My 2-year-old sat nearby, listening intently. I turned and asked her, “And, Abbie, what do you say if a boy tries to kiss your lips in school?” She looked bashfully and replied, “I have to say ‘PLEASE!!!!’” – Abigail, 2 1/2, of Ladera Ranch

When my 3-year-old son, Zach, looked in the dryer for his blanket and came across my bra, he yelled, “Mommy,
why are your boobs in the dryer?”  – Zach, 3, of Anaheim Hills
