Grantisms - Part 239 (or something like that)

Mom - (on first day of preschool) So who do you sit beside in class?

Grant - I sit by the gray shirt boy.

Mom - What is his name?

Grant - I told you.  He's gray shirt boy.

Mom - Is his name Bradley? (I'm not psychic.  I knew that from orientation.)

Grant - Yeah.  That too.


************************


Grant - Hey Mom!  Why haven't I ever been to space before?


*************************

Grant - Hey Mom! I know what squirrels like to eat.

Mom - What is that?

Grant - They eat coconuts!

**************************

Grant - Hey Mom! (I told you he says this a lot.)

Mom - What Grant?

Grant - See that car parked beside ours?  Our cars are the same long.
            (interpretation - our cars are the same size)

**************************

Grant - (telling Grace how old he is while role playing with Grace)  I'm seventy-four thousand one hundred and two years old.  That's a grandpa age!

**************************

Grant - (informing everyone of what order we're going to be in while playing Candy Land)  I'm number one.  Mom, you're number two.  Emily, you're number three. Grace, you're number last.

*************************

Grant - Hey Mom!  Look!  I can run backwards. (shuffling his feet in reverse at a snail's pace)

*************************

Grant - Downer!  Left!  Upper! Downer!  Downer!  Right there!  (giving me directions on where exactly to scratch his back.)

*************************

Grant - Bye Mom!  Will you be gone a long minute?  (interpretation - a long time)

*************************

Grant - This tastes cookie-ish!

Hope you're feeling better, Bethany!!  We love  you.
