Silly Talk

You know how some days your kids just say things that make you look at them and think where did that come from, or they come out with little quips that make you chuckle?

I’m having one of those weeks and in the interests of not forgetting these gems, and perhaps giving you a chuckle too, here’s a snapshot of the funny things my children have said this week:

The Little MonsterAged 4 and 1/4

Mummy, Are you my step mother now Daddy has falled out with you? – upon overhearing Super Daddy and I having ‘words’.

I want to be a postman. Or a dog.

Mummy, you smell like cereal bars this morning – first words to me today upon wakening, so much for the odour free fake tan!

Can you take a picture of me colouring so I can show the world how good I am at it?

I’ll sell you this drawing of a Ninja Turtle for £12.50 if you pay up now.

Some people don’t have children. Maybe they’re allergic to them.

The Little PrincessAged 6 and 3/4

Mummy, you are so embarrassing when you sing like that. You think you’re cool. It’s a bit awkward actually. – upon me warbling along to Daft Punk and strutting some funky disco moves (ahem) in the car.

When I’m 13 I’m going to be a typical teenager and live on my phone and love clothes.

Upon telling her I thought she was hilarious – I am. I’m also hilarious at school. Fact.

What gems have your little ones shared with you this week? Do share!

How to focus on the best parts in all of the madness

It’s been a week and a half! Last time I checked it was Monday morning and I was laying flat on my back, which believe me is not anywhere near as exciting as it sounds. I had a rather lovely … Continue reading

Dear little fish

Dear Little Princess Pink, It’s been a while since I called you that. One, because you’re not quite as little as you used to be and take every opportunity to remind me that you’ll probably be taller than me by … Continue reading

Parenting a SuperHero

20130426-112515.jpg

Last weekend dawned the arrival of a new kid on the block. A fearless, ferocious, feisty four year old type. In his white t-shirt and wellington boots he rules with a mighty force. All those who cross his path – … Continue reading

Weekend by Numbers

One – one trip to North Berwick to visit my lovely folks who were enjoying a well earned break, until of course we descended upon them pleading to play with the frisbee, get the bubbles out and collect sticks to … Continue reading

Poo Watch

I knew I was a fully fledged parent when I started to talk, with no qualms whatsoever, to other people (parents mostly) about poo. The colour, the consistency, the frequency…….the smell. If you’re queasy, or not a parent, I don’t … Continue reading
