Things at a picnic

Things you don’t want to hear immediately after arriving home (#4)

Both children singing as loudly as possible:  “Jumping up and down till your pants fall down!” while doing exactly that.

School dates

For next year. http://www.bathnes.gov.uk/BathNES/educationandlearning/Schoolsandcolleges/termdates/Proposed+School+Term+and+Holiday+Dates+2011-12.htm The summer holiday just gets shorter and shorter…

Valentine

Child #2. Valentines card.

The real thing

Both children are making truffles. Child #2 [pointing to a plate of cocoa that we’re rolling the truffles in]: We make cakes with that. Child #1: And lots of other things. Like Cocoa Cola.

Agent

Daddy: “Why have you got a shell in your pocket?” Child #1: “It’s one of my powers. I’m Agent #1 at school and I need my powers to turn Olivia into a Jammie Dodger.”

Extinct

Daddy [to Child #1]: “…so, endangered is when there are only a few of you and extinct is when there’s none of you.” Child #2 [looking indignant]: “I don’t stink.”
