I Didn't Play/That;s So Embarrassing

We have friends/relatives who have kids who are always talking about the "funny" things their kids do or say. The story always starts with, "Oh so-and-so did the funniest thing! I have to tell you about it! You're gonna die!". They always say "You're gonna die" at the end. This seems appropriate since we would usually rather be dead than pretending to be amused by their un-amusing story.
The little humans that belong to us, on the other hand, actually say/do funny things. Like, things that would even be funny if grown ups said/did them.
For instance, I was driving Eden, our 4 year old, to spend the night with his grandparents and found myself involved in a complicated conversation about biological relationships and the intricacies of the food chain. Long story short; Eden made the remark that something was "so embarrassing".
I said, "E-man what does embarrassing mean".
He replies, "You know. It's like when a crocodile eats meat."
I say, "E that's not embarrassing that's how crocodiles roll."
Then he asks if alligators roll like crocodiles. He figures they probably do since they look a lot like crocodiles. This discovery leads to a conversation about biological classification (family, genus, species, etc) and an explanation of why the crocodile always goes for the weakest zebra.
The animal thing is a reoccurring topic. A few days ago Eden informed us that he wanted to be a vegetarian when he grew up.
Chelsea said, "E, what's a vegetarian?"
To which he replied, "You know, mom. It's like a doctor for animals. They help them when they're sick."
Chelsea said,"You mean a veterinarian."
Eden said,"Whatever."
Example number two: When Chelsea returned from an attempt to become less pale while floating in the "honesty pool" with her cousin/bff, she was greeted by a very energetic Caroline. As always, the first question Chelsea asked Caroline was, "Did you have fun with Mammy while I was gone?" Caroline immediately started laughing and replied, "I didn't play, I didn't play." We laughed at the time but didn't realize until later that our 19 month old daughter made a casual joke. She knew what she did while Chelsea was gone, she knew what Chelsea was going to ask and she thought it would be funny to tell Chelsea that she didn't do what both of them knew she did.
In conclusion, you might not think our kids are as funny as yours are. You might not think our kids are as funny as we think they are. But the bottom line is that our kids are funnier than your kids.
