   Has any body attempted a compilation of the hilarious things kids do
   and say in the process of growing up?  If not, I am willing to act as
   a collector of these stories.  Email me, and I'll repost as the list
   grows.  To start things off (or to add to someone else's list) I have
   the following to stories:

   Story #1: Told to me by a former co-worker.

   Eliot was about 3 when he and his dad paid a visit to a local mall.
   Eliot began to misbehave, so his dad picked him up and proceeded to
   carry him out of the store.  As they made their way to the exit, Eliot
   yelled out, "Hey mister, put me down."

   [You can guess what they taught Eliot in preschool.]

   Story #2: Told to me by a school principal at a panel discussion on
   "Is your child ready for kindergarten?"

   The principal was visiting the kindergarten class, as was his daily
   habit.  The teacher was teaching the children about colors.  She asked
   the class if anyone knew what color one got when one mixed blue and
   yellow.  One kid immediately yelled out, "Green!"  The teacher,
   shocked at the child's quick and correct answer, asked how he knew.
   The child replied, "My mommy puts this blue stuff into the potty, and
   when I do a pee pee it turns green."

   [The principal then went on to explain how kids learn from all types
   of experiences.]
