I want to share a funny conversation we had while driving to swimming this morning.
Mr Sociable: Mummy, there's no police around here.
Me: You're right, there's not.
Mr Sociable: So now maybe I can drive?
Me: lol
A long conversation followed about safety & reaching the pedals (he was convinced that he could make a tower out of ice that would help him to reach the pedals). I reasoned with him that he doesn't know how to drive - he is convinced that he does! I love his confidence - that he thinks that the only thing stopping him from driving is the police!!
Mr Fun was not happy today about having his nappy changed. I started to sing (to the tune of Shuddupayaface), "What's the matter with you, eh? Have you done a poo, eh?"
Mr Sociable chimes in, "In the new canoe, eh?" lol
I've recently decided to try and archive some of our "funny" family memories. I'm in the process of reading through all of my facebook posts (since 2007) & have really been enjoying remembering the funny moments in family life. I'm planning on a series of posts that record those precious & funny moments of daily life.
