I wasn't really sure what I wanted to write about today. I really just wanted to write down the latest 'Things the Bean has said' and acknowledge in blog form (not just to my friends and the facebook universe) that I received my first standing ovation last night...
The Bean gave me a standing ovation for his dinner - it was jacket potatoes.
The Things The Bean has said:
1.
Me: Give your Aunty Andrea a cuddle goodbye.
A: Oh thanks darlin', you're the best hugger
TB: And it's easy, I didn't even need to get taught!
2. Crossing the road.
Me: Is there any cars coming?
TB: No, but there is a shark attack coming.
3.
TB: Mama, there's definitely something wrong with your microwave, this spaghetti is way too hot to eat.
4. After his first school production.
Me: I really liked your performance.
TB *filled with rage*: It's not a performance! Everyone keeps saying performance and concert! It's a production!!!
Me: Well, 'production; and 'performance' and 'concert' are all similar words.
TB: No productions are bigger than concerts and have more people and dances that performances!
5.
TB: I'm so excited! My brain and my heart are actually wiggling!
6.
TB: The company that's called 'Lease' have lots and lots of houses to build in Australia. They have signs all over the place!
7. After his first venture into watching Back to the Future.
TB: Mama, I wish you had a Delorean in the carport.
8. Buying his girlfriend a birthday present.
Me: She doesn't really like fairies and princess does she?
TB: Nah, she's too cool for fairies and princess stuff.
9. Mix up on the standard morning nagging conversation.
Me: Come one, eat your breakfast. I need to get in the shower.
TB: Then just get in the shower now.
Me: No because if I do that and tell you to get ready while I'm in there, you'll just get naked and sit on the mat playing.
TB: Hahahaha, no I won't.
Me: You always do.
TB: Hahahaha
Me: Do you love getting naked?
TB: Noooooo! I don't want to show everyone my parts.
10. Reading a book set in ye olde times.
TB: Mama, I've noticed something. We use lights a lot to see when it's dark, but in these weeks they used candles.
Me: Years?
TB: Yeah. ANd they didn't have cars.
Me: Nope.
TB: Why?
Me: Because they didn't have electricity and motors and engines and stuff. It wasn't invented yet.
TB: But electricity is important.
Me: Yeah but we used to live like that. Humans. We had candles and fires. We didn't have heaters in the wall.
TB: Did they have hats.
Me: Hehehehe, yup.
TB: Did they have girls?
