I remain on the far side of random

A few more of my many recently entertaining conversations with my older son:


Scene 1: The toy room

INC: Okay boys. It's time for a bath

Bundle: No. I want a zebra


It is mildly comforting that this was a reference to a hand puppet, but perhaps not as comforting as one might think.

Scene 2: The toy room: More recently

Bundle: [proudly wearing his 'big boy' undies] I'm going to say something to the nappies

INC: Okay....

*Bundle walks over to the nappy box*

Bundle: SILLY NAPPIES!

INC: .....


Scene 3: Also the toy room: Only slightly less recently

Bundle: What time is it?

INC: It's 8.30.

Bundle: Oh

*Five minutes later*

Bundle: What time is it?

INC: It's twenty five to nine

Bundle: Oh. Good.

*Five minutes later*

Bundle: What time is it?

INC: It's twenty to nine

Bundle: Hmmmmm

*Five minutes later*

Bundle: What time is it?

INC: It's quarter to nine

Bundle: QUARTER TO NINE! REALLY? THAT SURPRISES ME!


.......


It surprised me too. Quite a lot, actually.

I am not surprised that I think Bundle to be totally excellent.
