In Tweet Your Kids, Tweet Your Kids #2 , and Tweet Your Kids #3, I wrote “Ever think ‘I should write that down’ when your child says something funny?”
I use Twitter for that. Here’re some Tweet-worthy comments from my boys.
Seven-year-old Zachary
7yo Zachary tried “delivering newspapers” today, tossing a paper from his bike. Fell. Scraped. Said “I’m never going to be a newspaper boy.”
“Every time I watch Tom & Jerry it makes me want to eat cheese.”
Zach: “Dad, your esculum is showing!” Dad: Do you mean “epidermis”? Zach: “Oh. Right. Yes.”
“Thank you God that I’m alive and that I came to this family.”
Watching The Flintstones with Zach: “Did they really have cars like that back then?”
7yo friend over, tattles: “Zachary hit Lucas!” Zachary: “It’s true. I’m going to my room now.”
Dad: “Lucas, what’s that on your face?” Zachary: “Maybe it’s a disease!”
Oh my. Zach just said, “Lucas! You don’t have to be so argumentative!” We’re in trouble.
Zachary discovered Daddy’s Wharton Follies video + can’t stop saying “Cheerios Sucks” http://budurl.com/CheeriosSucks
Five-year-old Lucas
Involving my 5yo in problem solving. What should we do? “We should punish him if he doesn’t do it my way.”
5yo Lucas: “Honey? Honey? Beth? Mom! Momma? Excuse me, Momma! Mom! Mom! Dad?”
Dad: You’re talking nonsense. 5yo Lucas: “No. Kindergartners do good talking stuff.”
On my way to #Gnomedex. 5yo Lucas: “Don’t go, you big AnnoyingHead!”
5yo Lucas: “I just want to be big. Big people get to drive cars. Little people just get to drive tractor stuff.”
Great moments in Hage history. 5yo Lucas: “Daddy, I can spell my second name! H-A-G-E!”
Zach hit Luke in the crotch with a ball. Lucas: “Zachary! You almost broke my penis!”
5yo Lucas: “I don’t like getting punished and I hate it!”
5yo Lucas: “I cleaned up. Can I have $20.” No. Why don’t u pay me $20 for making ur sandwiches? “I don’t have money. Get it from Mom.”
5yo Lucas: “What did I look like when you and Momma buyed me?”
5yo Lucas: “Daddy, how do doggies get maked?”
5yo Lukey: “Daddy, did you know ‘gluteus maximus’ is another way to say a potty-talk word? It means butt.”
5yo Lucas eating cookies: “Dad, can I have the three-ith one?”
5yo Lucas under a blanket: “Daddy, I’m naked.” Dad: “Why?” Lucas: “Because I love myself naked.”
Guest post from Luke’s friend’s mouth:
Mother, “Mason, did you speak to God at church today?” 5yo Mason, “No, but at the end, the other people ate him.”

Twitter is good. Personally, I prefer Posterous for these little things my two boys say and do. My wife and I have a private Posterous blog, and we can easily add family/child anecdotes to Posterous via a quick email.

Jeff, I just started using Posterous. Do you prefer it because you like to keep the comments private?
