My DD (3 yr old) has just called her DF a grumpy head slug, and I dont know why, but I found it quite funny.

Please cheer me up after a night shift from hell.

Not a name, but on a recent holiday, my brother and SIL wanted to do something and DN was having fun swimming, running about between beach and pool etc, so I said DH and I would stay with her rather than getting her changed etc. I turned to her and said 'come on mate let's go on to the beach now and build sandcastles', she's two. She looked me straight in the eye and said very seriously 'auntie Fash I'm not your mate', picked up her bucket and spade and then looked at me to follow her onto the beach.

Similar to Fash, DH recently asked DS (8) to go and get him something from the kitchen. He fixed him a indignant glare and said, ‘Dad, I’m not your butler.’ Goodness knows where he dredged that up from. In this house, it’s now become something of a response to any excessive request.

I am currently making breakfast. DD just said 'you seem angry, mummy. Youre like a big Angry Kitchen Goat.'

I love grumpy head slug!

My 2 year old is in the bath, making me sing to her.

She has just requested that well known classic, "the fart on the bus goes pfft pffft pfffft." Hmm

My 3 year old calls me Grosley then cackles to herself. I called it her back recently thinking it was a nickname and she looked really hurt. I suspect it's an insult :)

One Christmas I got a beige cord long coat and a hat with fur bits around - ds announced I looked like a lovely sheep. . I put the hat in a charity bag....

My then 5 year old was really cross with me. He told me 'you're the smelliest fart ever!' when I made him go to bed at his usually bed time.

My 2yo calls me Lady. He won’t contemplate ‘mum’ or ‘mummy’. When he’s hurt or lost he immediately sends up a cry of ‘my lady!’

My 5yo on the other hand called me a bum hole spider Confused a few days ago. I had told him he had to eat his dinner before he had any pudding. So, the same rule that has applied his entire life and he suddenly decided was completely unfair.

I also had my hair did for my friends wedding a few years ago. It was lovely loose curls and ds told me it looked like my hair was made from pasta.
