If you have kids, you know that they are bound to throw out some gems from time to time – off the wall notions, insights beyond their age, or hilarious misuses of words or phrases. My two are no exception and I am determined to share more of such moments through this new meme. I hope you enjoy it.

Today’s entry is from this weekend from my daughter (she is 5 1/2). She was sitting by herself at the table in our kitchen having a drink while my wife was nearby. The table is a counter-height table and she is sitting along the one side of it in a row of 3 chairs. Their exchange was as follows:

daughter: I feel like I’m at a bar.
mom: What do you mean?
daughter: You know, a bar – like the kind where they have drinks.
mom: Oh yeah?
daughter: [finishes drink, holds up her cup and the rattles the ice in it] I’m empty!
