Scene: Upon waking up with a cough yesterday morning; on the car ride to school.
L: Mommy, I'm pretty sick. My cough, it's pretty bad.
Me: L, I think you're going to be okay. (Empathetic parenting is not my forte. So sue me.)
L: No, I don't feel good. I'm sick 'cuz I got a cough.
Me: You don't have a fever. If you don't feel well at school, tell your teacher and she can call me.
L: (brightening) Oh! Okay! I am very sick, you know.
Me: Now you need to know, though, that if you come home, you'll have to lie on the couch and watch tv.
L: (brightening more) Okaaay!
Me: And you won't get to play the Wii because you'll be too sick.
***dramatic pause***
L: I fink I'll be okay.

Scene: Car ride on the way to school
L: Mommy. Hey Mommy. Did you know I have two heads?
Me: (stifles inappropriate giggles) Oh, really?
L: Yeah. (points to forehead) I got my forehead, and .... (pats the top of his head) I got a fivehead.
Namaste', L. Namaste'.

What a stinker...it's crazy how early they try to start playing you : )
Totally laughed out loud at the fivehead comment :)
HA! What a cutie.
Oh! I was worried about the second conversation there for a minute!
Haha! I don't think I could have kept a straight face for either of those conversations! I love what little kids have to say :o)
Bahahaha he's just fabulous.
BAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! I love a good L conversation.
Best conversation ever.
So cute
How funny! I love how he was suddenly ok once the Wii was not an option. :)
Stopping by from All It Takes Is Faith & Trust. Super cute story! Kids are so cute, I can't wait for my own someday!
So freaking adorbale.
And yeah, I fail at empathetic parenting when Punky is "sick." She gets no TV - at least until we're truley convinced of the illness.
I have to stifle giggles at some of the things The Nephew says, too. He'll understand why they're funny when he's older.
But I love that you were able to magically cure L's ailment!
