We hired the movie 'How to lose friends and alienate people" (dumb movie btw).
Our 6yr (at the time) old wanted to know which people the Alien Ate!
He's so on to it.

I am just doing exams with my kids (oral questions about what they have
remembered from their readings this term).
I asked my son who the composer was that we were studying this term and his reply was Betenova!
That would have been pretty good had we been studying Beethoven....
but we have been studying Vivaldi!

Our oldest 3 are packing to go on holiday camp tomorrow...
Hubby says to our boy, "son, you need to get a toilet bag to put your toiletries in"
Boy in his usual non-processing way replies, "what?! you gotta poo in a bag??"
Sigh...how am I gonna get someone to marry him one day when he says things like this?

The other day we were driving to one of the kids activities and I realised that I didn't have make-up on. So I went to turn around and come home.
The kids said "No mum, we're already late...you look fine"
I said "No way I'm going out looking like this." (Yes...I'm vain).
They said "You can't even tell the difference mum" (First knife to the heart!)
I said "yes you can...I need make up to hide everything."
Son says "hmmm...I can't tell you wear any...maybe your wrinkles are hiding the makeup?" (Right there...driving that dagger home!)
He's out of hospital now and doing fine. Lets hope he's learnt that there are some things that are better left in your own heads. ;-)

Me: Um...no.
Son: What is it then?
Me: Are you thinking of "I" before "E" except after "C"?
Son: Hmmm...no cos I want to spell chair.
