A 4 year old observes

DS has some amusing little ideas. Having discussed about where fluid gets stored and then comes out into the toilet he now tells me that there is a tank inside him. Or several it seems.

DS: Mummy, my juice tank and water tank are full but my milk tank needs milk! Can I have cold fridge milk?


Changing DD's nappy he observes and then asks, "Where's her wee thing?" So I gesture in the general direction.... "She's a girl so she doesn't have one like you."


Driving along he sees a rottweiler being walked (from behind).

DS: I can see a bottom!
Me: What!? Oh... a dog's bottom.


Driving along he tells me from the back seat "That man has no clothes on!"
Me: Where!? Where!?
Long-suffering-husband: Settle down, he's just got his shirt off.
Me: Rats!

    I can't wait for William to start saying more interesting things. He's only 17months so he's just putting words together.

    His LONGEST string so far is
    "Momma please more momma more more pleeeese"
    This was when he discovered the goodness of Freddo Frogs.

    He's really into "more...." like when we are in the car he says "More bus", "more Digger" or "more truck" as if his 'all powerfull' parents can make these things appear outside the car.
