Today, my daughter ran up to a librarian working in the kids section and screamed "MOMMY!" and hugged her. She looked at her and said "I'm not your mommy." My daughters reply: "I know. But you're better than mommy" FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, after spending time with my daughter and painting her nails she gives me a hug and says, "Mommy I love you, but I love daddy much better!" FML
Today, I have been teaching my 5 year-old step-daughter how to read and write. She came bounding up to me with a piece of paper and said, "look what I did". It was a letter that said "My dad misses my real mommy, not you". FML
Today, I explained to my 5 year old daughter that her older sister from my husband's first marriage lives with her mommy, and my daughter lives with us. She exclaimed, "It's not fair! I want two mommies like she has! Can we swap, I like her mommy better than you anyway!" FML
Today, I took my daughter to the library instead of the pool. I sat her on the counter and, while I reached for my library card, she turned to the librarian and said, "We didn't go to the pool today because Mum has hairy legs." FML
Today, I was in a grocery store when a little boy ran up out of nowhere, hugged my leg, then said, “Mommy!” I looked down and said, “Hey there, kiddo!” Right then, his actual mom walked up and gave me a look that seemed like it could set me on fire. The kid then looked up at me and said, “You’re prettier than my real mom.” FML
Today, as I was taking my three year-old daughter home from daycare, she asked where her daddy was. I tried to tell her that I was her father, but she answered, "No, not you! My other daddy!" I've got some talking to do tonight. FML
Today, my two year old daughter did not want to leave the toy store, when I picked her up she started screaming at the top of her lungs, "YOU'RE NOT MY DADDY!". FML
Today, my daughter told me that she liked her "other daddy" better. I don't know who's she talking about, but my wife is doing a good job telling her to be quiet. FML
Today, I went to pick up my daughter from preschool. When I got there, I ran to give her a hug. She screamed and ran away. FML
Today, at preschool, I got to meet the mother of my daughter's best friend. She complimented mine's grades, and noted her quirkiness. I complimented her's for being congenial and being well-rounded. Later, my daughter said they are no longer besties because her mom said I called her daughter fat. FML

Don't worry about it. Some kids just have people that they like to see. Maybe your librarian's really nice and so she's your daughter's favorite person. Either way, FYL

aw. This happened when my sister was little. She went up to our mom and said "look mom I love you but I love mrs moony more". (her preschool teacher) But don't stress my sister forgot all about it. I'm sure your daughter will too

She's a child and doesn't realize some things she says. Your mommy the meanie at times, so the librarian in her eyes is the fun playtime lady. Don't worry about it.

aww, don't sweat it, little kids always do stuff like that, but she'll forget about it eventually. she'll probably be really embarrassed that she said that if you remind her when she's older.

This reminds me of when I took care of my nephew for a few days. He's almost two and after his parents picked him up for the next few days after, anytime his parents would punish him for something he would say "I want auntie!!" Which is weird, because I did punish him when he did things wrong. Anywho I wouldn't worry about it. I'm going to mimick everyone else and say that she didn't mean it.

Open mouth, insert tiny foot. Kids don't have control of their mouths.

Ouch! That hurts. How old is she? She didn't really mean that. Keep up the smile and give your kid the best ;) @#4 Kids will forget it, but parents don't. Your mom still remember this.

Typical thing for a young child to say, especially if they're not spoiled.

What the hell is wrong with you! Kids are pest but only sometimes. They don't know any better. Jeez people probably thought you were a pest but I wouldn't blame them. But that's cuz they probably didn't hate ALL kids, just you. TEEHEE
