Out of the mouths of babes…

May 9, 2015 By jbmumofone 7 Comments

Weird conversations I have had with my pre-schooler this week…

(Any insights/interpretation most welcome)

 

Him: Mummy, we need a flower house.

Me: What’s a flower house?

Him: You know, like the one we saw.

Me: When love? Where? 

Him: You know Mummy!  The one with the man on the roof and the soft-play.

Me: *Blank stare*

 

Him: If Daddy’s head gets any bigger we will need a bigger house.

Me: Hmmm?

Him: But don’t worry Mummy it probably won’t happen.

Me: That’s good.

Him:  Yes, you’ll probably die before then.

Me: *Blank stare*

 

Him: Mummy why can’t boys have babies in their tummies?

Me: Because that’s what girls have to do love.

Him: Why?  How did you make a baby?

Me: Well, it takes a long time to grow a baby…

Him:  Yes, this one is taking AGES.

Me: *Horrified blank stare*

(STAND DOWN GRANNY I AM NOT, REPEAT NOT, PREGNANT AGAIN)

 

Him:  Mummy I had a horrible dream last night.

Me: Really love, what happened?

Him:  A truck came.  

Me: A truck?

Him: Yep, and then we died.  But we all get fat in heaven.

Me: *Looks for wine*

    His expression there is one of “put that on your blog and smoke it.”

    It’s interesting how their little mind works isn’t it? My eldest use to talk a lot about death too when she was your LO’s age. Thanks for linking to the #pinitparty

Welcome!

Jbmumofone is written by me, jbmumofone, and this blog is my baby. Although clearly I didn’t think this name through because I’m now a mum of two actual babies.

I blog because I love to write, and for sanity’s sake, and have been blogging since August 2011. So why not dig on in and explore?
