So there’s a strong possibility I had too much fun Saturday night or maybe just too much Pimms. Either or I had a restless night sleep, I’ll put it down to the sugar in the fruit, I like to make my Pimms like a veritable fruit salad.
Anyway, it was early Sunday morning and I was sleeping in with the boys and in that beautiful, deep slumber when I was aware of Harry stirring. He tiptoed over to me and tapped me on the shoulder,
“Mum, I have a question for you”
Me, “ Harry it’s really early and we should still be asleep”
Harry “ but I have a question for you muuuuum”
Me “okay”
Harry “ if you could be any animal what would it be”
Me “are you kidding me?”
Harry “ no”
Me “ right get your blanket and pillow and come in here with me and we’ll continue this convo snuggled up”
Moments later,
Harry “ mum have you gone back to sleep?”
Me “the chance would be a fine thing”
Harry, “ so what animal would you like to be?”
Me “ dolphin”
(At least he’s still young enough to not get in to the technicalities of animals and mammals at 05:45 on a Sunday.
Harry “ I’d be a dog so I could do stinky farts”
Me “ you already do stinky farts”
Harry “ I know, that’s why I’d make a good dog!”
Later on Harry informed me he had ants in his feet. I tried to explain to him about pins and needles and he said it was definitely just ants.
Harry also felt the need to show me a freckle on his bottom. I was tired and called it a mole. He questioned why it was itchy and I said because he’d been scratching it. He then thought about it for a while and asked me if it was possible he’d been bitten on the bottom by a mole.
Ollie has also been on form this weekend. He isn’t keen on going to bed at the moment and tells us he is scared.
Me “what have you got to be scared about? You’ve got a lovely bedroom all lit up with projector stars and rockets. We have a lovely home in a friendly community. You even get given presents by random strangers”
Ollie “ we haven’t been given presents”
Me “ yes you have, there was that man who dropped off all the action man stuff and the man down the woods that gave you all those wrestlers”
(Sounds dodgy / sinister, but it really wasn’t)
Ollie “ they weren’t presents! They weren’t wrapped up with a bow on top!”
They do make me chuckle x
Here’s to a happy Monday, fresh canvas, new week x x
Love and hugs, kisses and wishes xxxx
