Lately, around our house…
SCOUT: Hey Mummy you my lunch. I gonna gobble you up.
ME: Oh no, don’t gobble me up! I’m not your lunch!
SCOUT: Shoosh. Lunch can’t talk.
: : :
SCOUT: I really need Weetbix Mummy. My tummy’s lonely.
: : :
ME: Hey listen to this classic old song
[Split Enz plays “I see red I see red I see red”]
SCOUT (singing with gusto): I see pink I see pink I see PINK!
: : :
ME: Yeesh Scout, that’s two poo-filled nappies in half an hour!
SCOUT: Happy birthday Mummy.
: : :
MR B: We are a Bulldogs family. We all barrack for the Bulldogs, don’t we Scout.
SCOUT: No Daddy.
MR B: Oh! Then who do you barrack for?
SCOUT: Mummy!
She sure does make me smile.
