Scene {1} Sitting around the dinner tonight, I ask C why he didn't finish his lunch at school today.
Me: "Why didn't you finish your lunch today?"
C: "Well, I wasn't that hungry."
Me: "Why weren't you hungry?"
C: (sigh) "NO MOM, I didn't say I wasn't hungry, I just wasn't THAT hungry." (eye roll)
Me: "Oh. Right then."
Scene {2} Having bedtime snuggles in C's bed. We are talking about his day. Or trying to. (Note: C still wears a diaper at night...the kid insists in drinking a huge thing of milk right before bed and sleeps like a log aka doesn't wake up with the urge to pee yet.)
Me: "What are you doing?"
C: (pulls hand out of diaper) "Trying to feel my pee."
Me: "Ugh, please don't do that. You've never done that before."
C: "Why not?"
(yes...I should have known better at this point to keep this conversation going. End of day exhaustion is known to lead to poor parental decision making.)
Me: "Because it's yucky."
C: "Why is it yucky?"
Me: "Because it's dirty."
C: "Why is it dirty?"
Me: "Because it's full of bacteria."
C: "What is bacteria?"
Me: "It's like germs."
C: (now entering spaz voice mode) "Ohhhhhhhhh like diarrheaaaaaa MAMAAAAAAA"
Me: "Okay, time for bed."
Scene {3} Saying our final goodnights
C: "Good night mom...mom...mom mom mom hey MOM...hey, why do we have bones, mom?"
Me: "Ok, goodnight! Sweet dreams! Love you!"
In summary:
1. Have you figured out what "SMKS" yet?
2. I'm super glad the timing of Scene {2} did not occur at the same time as Scene {1}. Small miracles and all that.
