How little kids see the ocean

safe_image.php Saw this on another site and just can’t resist to share ;)

1. – This is a picture of an octopus. It has eight testicles.
(Kelly, age 6)
2. – Oysters’ balls are called pearls. (Jerry, age 6)
3. – If you are surrounded by ocean you are an island.. If you don’t have ocean
all round you, you are incontinent. ( Wayne , age 7)
4. – Sharks are ugly and mean, and have big teeth, just like Emily Richardson.
She’s not my friend any more. (Kylie, age 6)
5. – A dolphin breaths through an asshole on the top of its head. (Billy, age 8 )
6. – My uncle goes out in his boat with 2 other men and a woman and pots and
comes back with crabs.(Millie, age 6)
7. – When ships had sails, they used to use the trade winds to cross the ocean.
Sometimes when the wind didn’t blow the sailors would whistle to make the
wind come. My brother said they would have been better off eating beans.
(William, age 7)
8. – Mermaids live in the ocean. I like mermaids. They are beautiful and I like their
shiny tails, but how on earth do mermaids get pregnant? Like, really? (Helen,
age 6)
9. – I’m not going to write about the ocean. My baby brother is always crying, my
Dad keeps yelling at my Mom, and my big sister has just got pregnant, so I can’t
think what to write. (Amy, age 6)
10. – Some fish are dangerous. Jellyfish can sting.. Electric eels can give you a
shock. They have to live in caves under the sea where I think they have to plug
themselves into chargers. (Christopher, age 7)
11. – When you go swimming in the ocean, it is very cold, and it makes my willy
small. (Kevin, age 6)
12. – Divers have to be safe when they go under the water. Divers can’t go down
alone, so they have to go down on each other. (Becky, age 8 )
13. – On vacation my Mom went water skiing. She fell off when she was going
very fast. She says she won’t do it again because water fired right up her big fat
ass. (Julie, age 7)
14. – The ocean is made up of water and fish. Why the fish don’t drown I don’t
know.. (Bobby, age 6)
15.-My dad was a sailor on the ocean. He knows all about the ocean. What he
doesn’t know is why he quit being a sailor and married my mom. (James, age 7)

A Wonderful weekend to everyone!!

Featured Yarn-25. Patons Grace. Cotton

One of great summer cotton and I also found that double yarn work just perfect
for my fall/spring knitted jackets. Grace is a highly mercerized, first quality cotton
for apparel, baby and accessories. The palette is great shades … plus, wonderful
prints which truly coordinate with several solids. Grace is a great choice for knit or
crochet. Grace has a beautiful sheen and great hand which lends an upscale look
to completed projects.

  • 100% mercerized cotton
  • 50 grams (1-3/4 ounces) 136 yards
  • 4”=24 stitches on size 7 needles
  • Hand wash, dry flat
