It's 2 o'plock

And all is well

Birthday swap.

Many, many adorable and funny things have been uttered by the children over the last 2 years which I did not write down and will now be lost forever. Some have had us in stitches, yet this is the remark which has drawn me back to blogging.
Monkey is desperate for his next birthday, possibly as his recent 5th passed with little ado. He has been asking daily "how long till my birthday" and has been most displeased with the answer.
Recently he discovered that Dad's birthday is the next up. But Dad is not keen on his upcoming big day and has let Monkey that he would rather not have birthdays.
So Monkey got to thinking. A proposition... He'll swap birthday's with Dad!

Making babies.

Smelly Pants asked me "how you make dads?" and we spend some time discussing the cycle of life. Boys grow up to me men, men have babies and so they become dads. I explained that one day he will be a man and become a Dad when he has children of his own.
"I can't be a Dad" SP informs me.
"I don't know how to make babies!".
Ahh.. can't wait to have THAT conversation. "It does WHAT?"

I'm back.

After a CUGE absence, I'm back.
Of course, many years from now I'll never remember why I wrote that but it is not a spelling or typing error.
