The conversations we get into with our kids!!!

Today Lil Man was Chatting away about a game he had been playing… he mentioned that someone on the game said Luke Skywalker got milk on his tushie. He laughed, and then said “not that I know what a ‘tushie’ is!”

So I explained that it is basically an Americanised term for Bum! How people would say someone had ‘a nice tush’ and things like that. Well, he laughed, Lil Princess laughed, and he stated how ‘inappropriate’ it was!

I remarked that it wouldn’t be long before he was checking out girl’s behinds, and quite possibly making those kind of comments himself. He was horrified! “No!!! People don’t do that, that’s, like, sick, mum!”

Lil Princess must always involve herself into all conversations… “Well Daddy says it all the time… He says mummy has got a nice bummy!”

Gee thanks!

I realized yesterday that Lil Man is growing up…
We had to run, like properly RUN into town after school to get some promotion going on in a national paper, before it ran out. As we walked, me breathlessly, back to school to pick Lil Princess up, he walked past a friend/classmate of his…
Their exchange?

Friend: Yo
LM : ‘Sup (nods head)
Friend: ‘Sup…

And they walked on by…

Oh I giggled! He’s 9 for God’s sake!!!

I hold his hand and it seems so big, he is looking older, slowly his height will increase… But he’s still my baby… Shown by the fact that the promotion we were running to get, was for Lego!!!!

if you read my post on Sunday, you would know that the children in the UK I. Year 2 (aged 6-7) and Year 6 (aged 10-11) are going through some pretty serious tests right know, known as the SATS. They are used to grade their progress over their Primary and Junior school education time.

Lil Princess is in the midst of hers, being in Year 2. Oh the pressure of it all! How to describe the effects of these ‘tests’ on a little child…

We were as the kids karate lessons on Tuesday night. Lil Princess hai-ya’s from 4-5pm then plays with friends there for an hour whilst Lil Man has his lesson usually.
This week, after her lesson, day two of her SATS, she was listless, sat with her friend, didn’t jump around like a loon, wasn’t making a racket… Not normal…
she came over to me and sat next to me, then laid her head on my lap.
Me: What’s up, Lil Princess?
LP: I’m tired…
Me: Why don’t you go play?
LP: My body’s telling me to go and play, but my brain’s telling me to rest!

See the effects of this testing…. Broke my heart, she’s so exhausted…. But she’s doing so well bless her, all I could do was hug her!

My poor Lil Man!
He came home from school yesterday, with a thumping head ache, which was followed by a temperature…
He’s such a live wire normally so you totally know when he’s really not well…

He was tucked up in my bed, and there appeared ~~Lil~~ Dr Princess! Complete with her medical kit!

She did her own little check up and wrote him a treatment note, which I had to share with you!

Not very well 😦
T (tweezers?!) Wired (weird!)
Interesting swet ear (lovely! Sweaty ears!)
Bad head ake
You need rest

Bless her!!!!

Like A Boss! – Kids Logic Part 31

Do you ever have those days where something, a phrase, or even a song gets stuck in your head…?
The kids love watching Cartoon Network nowadays, and there is one programme, The Regular Show, that they watch loads.
At the moment they are advertising a Regular Show weekend special constantly, and tag line, which is repeated again and again, is the main character does [something] ‘like a boss!’ .
It’s called the Like A Boss weekend I think!
Anyway, I saw this advert as I was leaving home this morning, and all the way to school it was going around my head…

“Driving my car, like a Boss!” ,
“I’m opening the gate, like a Boss!“, “Putting my bags away, like a Boss!“…

You get my drift… Annoying as heck, but it just trips off the tongue!
We got in my classroom and I said “Like a Boss!” much to the amusement of my colleagues! I explained the origin and carried on with my preparations.
Lil Princess was with me, so we went off to her classroom to drop off her things.
