Five-year-old Joseph overheard his big brothers discussing the fact that grown-ups sometimes kiss on New Year’s Eve. His heart was quite heavy at this disturbing news, and he came to find me. Here was our discussion:
Joseph: Are you going to kiss Dad?
Me: Yes.
Joseph: Will you be wearing lipstick?
Me: Probably.
Joseph: Will you wipe it off first?
Me: I don’t know–why?
Joseph: Well, you wouldn’t want to kill him.

What the heck kinda lipstick do you wear, woman?
Too FUNNY!!!!
I wonder if the CIA knows about this? I mean we could have a whole bunch of lip-stick wearing assassins! Lipstick must be cheaper than weapons and apparently just as efficient! Too funny..

I love that story! Made me chuckle. But then I got to thinking…….
I tell you what. You just let him keep thinking that kissing a girl wearing lipstick will kill him. These girls nowadays are ruthless. I think I’m going to start drilling this into my boy’s tiny head. STAY AWAY FROM GIRLS. ESPECIALLY THOSE WEARING LIPSTICK. Do ya think I might be a little over protective? He’s only two. Better safe than sorry.
I love the new look, btw.
Very Cute!
Too cute!
No worries of course, because Dads are impervious to THAT kind of poisin. 😉
BTW – Love.love.love the new look!!!
I’m with karly.
(and where do you get it?)
rofl! Were they just watching the movie Holes by any chance? One of the characters in it boasts of wearing poisonous lipstick. 😉
Hahaha,that’s too cute!
That is hilarious! I often wonder what’s going on in that little mind……he looks at things in unusual ways!! Ya never know what he’s going to say next.
How funny. My 7 year old and his friend were discussing how kissing is yucky and nasty yesterday and how they hate it when moms and dads kiss because it’s gross.
Yes, Dads are immune to death by lipstick. Just like Mommy’s kisses sink in and you can’t wipe them off. Ahahahaha!
LOL!!!
Oh, you haven’t heard of death by lipstick?? You have not watched enough Lifetime movies, my friend 😉
I agree with Kristy on the kissing girls with lipstick thing is bad news! Although you may have a daughter that fears lipstick or loves to wear it and kiss the boys!! *smile*
oops… it was fiddledeedee I agreed with, perhaps lipstick effects reading skills too…
Who knew Cover Girl Rum Raisin was that deadly? 🙂
Cute!
I’m new to your blog, and just subscribed to it on bloglines. I like it!
Just added a link to your blog from mine.
Yeah, Shannon. Safety first. Romance later.
whod a thought that lipstick could have that effect
i myself dont wear makeup makes me feel subconious
kids say the funniest things 🙂
My kids share the lipstick fear! I remember when they were little they both were afraid of the kiss goodbye that might leave a lipstick trail. Now they get me back by having spitty wet lips when I demand a goodbye kiss. Nothing like slopper on the cheek to show they love you…..
