Out of the Mouthes of Babes...

Will's been keeping me on my toes this week. Here's a quick sampling of his antics:


...after his "rest" on Friday (naps are few and far between these days) he comes downstairs and announces "look Mum, I'm an 8th grader". He's got his ball cap on backwards and his backpack on.

...being overtired on Friday night, we battled with tears and a meltdown at bedtime. After using his stuffed dinosaur "Rexy" to whack me at least 3 times I said "that's it, your stories are out the window!" I left his room to give us both time to cool down and about 10 minutes later I hear a sobbing voice say "but Mum, how can my stories go out the window when it's closed?" Thank goodness I was downstairs and he was in his room, because you KNOW that made me giggle.
