The world according to a 3.5 year old
Sometimes what you mean and what you say are not the same thing. But that could be because your parents have dirty minds and still laugh at the number 69.
Example:
Mum, come over here and hot me up. You have to stay here for two more minutes to make me hot.
Um, that would be warm you up son.
Example:
Jasper: Mummy, why don't you wear your jarmies to bed and be in the nude when you go to sleep?
Mummy: I don't know, it's just a grown up thing
Daddy: Because last night Mummy and Dad...
Mummy: MOVING ON
Jasper: Tonight when I go to bed I'm going to go up to your woom, clean my giggies (teeth - long story, it was what Grover started calling them a few months back and now we all do), do a wee and then take off my pants and GO TO BED IN THE NUDE just like you. Mwhahahahahahaha
Mummy: OK. But won't you get cold?
Jasper: No, becawse I'll have you to warm me up.
(Mother takes quick moment to appreciate correct temperature related word in this situation)
Daddy: But only grow-ups sleep in the nude, you've got to sleep in your jammies to keep you warm!
Jasper: When I'm a grown up I'm going to sleep in the nude with mummy.
(OH MY)
Daddy: When you're a grown up you'll be sleeping in your own bed in your own house with your own wife or husband.
(OHHH MY)
Jasper: NOOOO, I'll be living with u two and sleeping in ooorrr bed.

Maybe I'd like to go to the park today.

The best part of the day is going for a walk in the mornings with Grandmama. "I love dat."

Discovering lego is both wondrous and infinitely frustrating.

Maybe I'd like ... is the phrase of the moment.
* with nothing on it
** with nothing on it - although on occasion he will eat it with a basic tomato sauce on it or with oil and garlic, but even that can sometimes cause meltdowns of catastrophic proportions
*** with butter and vegemite
**** with tomato sauce and cheese. Don't try to slip some ham on there, he will see it and refuse to eat one more mouthful.

LMAO!! That whole conversation is priceless. (And Freudian.)
I love these conversations. For years we said "meese me" instead of "excuse me". (who knows?) And I remember the days when certain members only ate plain rice, plain pasta with tomato sauces, and plain pizzas It is so gratifying, now that they have grown (now 5 and 7) that their palettes have become more sophisticated. (now it's ham AND pineapple)
Master Commentbox always asked for his pasta "with plain". He also snuggled into my bed one night when Mr. C. was away and stroked my face while saying "I will be your husband tonight Mummy."
We called pasta "bisketti" apparently, and my mum still likes to call it that. We roll our eyes at her, because that's what ungrateful children do ;)
This WAS funny and interesting.
Eleanor, did you cry when your son told you that? AS codl hearted as I am, I think I would have ...

Pasta Carbonara in our house has been called "Noodles with White Sauce" ever since the oldest could talk. Spag Bol was of course "Noodles with Red Sauce". Basic but effective.
Until the most recent time I discussed it with him (perhaps a year ago), Youngest had said he was never moving out. He loved us too much and couldn't bear to leave. Yesterday he mentioned having his own place - when I said: I thought you are never moving out, he said: you're kidding me, right?
Ours both said noo-noos too. I, of course, will be saying noo-noos forevermore, and I don't care if they roll their eyes at me.
oh my..........tooo funny.......
hugs girl.
