Just noticed littlest DC looking over at me so I asked her what's up?
No answer, just carried on with the death stare.
Ask her what she wants to do today.
Looks at me dead in the eyes and says
"Eat biscuits".

So there we have it folks, bested by my 2 Yr old 😂

BTW, I totally get that this is probably one of those 'you had to be there' moments and doesn't translate well but her serious manner just cracked me up, like she was thinking "and don't you even think about telling me otherwise lady".

I love this - i had almost the exact same interaction with my 2 year old this morning

"What do you want to do today?"

"Shop. Biscuits. Go now."

It's like living with a tiny dictator 😅

I asked my 4 year old what he wanted to do today he said let's sit in the window and wait for the ice cream man ( the ice cream van comes between 7pm and 8pm on a Sunday 😂

My 6 year old found a rock. 'How will I carry it? Ooh in my helmet. Where's my helmet? Oh yeah, on my head'.

@BabaganooToo Our 2yr old dictators must be in cahoots with each other.
It got better.
DH came in after his run, and I was telling him about it so he said all chirpy as you like "I'm the champion biscuit eater around here, I'll eat biscuits with you!"
Again, the death stare, then very matter of fact "No daddies" 😆
(She got her biscuits, hope yours did too)

@onwardandupwards Hope your little fella got his ice cream, he's very patient! 😅

@YourFluentCrab that's hilarious bless him.
I do that all the time with my sunglasses 😉

My 19yo ds has the most unintentionally dry sense of humour. He can crack you up without even realising he is being funny.

He often has us all crying with laughter which then escalates when he asks us why we are all asking.

My favourite from him was when he was about 8.

He kept asking for boiled egg and dead soldiers. I couldn't work out what dead soldiers was...........

It was .......

"Toast"

My mum had taught him the expression "you're toast" as an alternative to "you're dead"

Turned the lights off in my 4 year old's bedroom and he shouts "oh no I can't see! Put some glasses on me!"

Had to explain that glasses don't make you see in the dark any better 🤣
