"I've got a blaster and I will destroy you! Did you see my ship? It's going so super fast! Vrrroar!"
"Bob? You've been using a loud voice all day. I really need you to use a quiet voice now."
"Why, Mama?"
"The loudness is making me tired."
"Okay."
"Thanks, Baby. So you think you can do that?"
"No. Not really."
Ah, how adult-hood ruins us for honesty like that.. *sigh*
ReplyDeleteI think Bob is the reincarnation of my grandmother. At 75 she decided she was entitled to speak her mind loudly and often. She lived another very long, loud, and honest 20 years. Oy.
ReplyDeleteAs Bob Rosenberg already knows- honesty is the best policy.
ReplyDeleteI like the "loudness is making me tired" bit. Ain't that the truth? And, as usual, Bob makes me laugh so that coffee tries to escape out my nose. Bob rules.
ReplyDeleteWhen I ask Fynn to use his quiet voice he most often tells me "but mommy, I HAVE to talk loudly, I just have to!"
ReplyDelete:)
I hope they keep this honesty thing going, it's refreshing...
Did you at least giggle when he said that? I'm sure your tiredness didn't go away, but surely laughter helped :-)
ReplyDeleteLOL This is why I'm looking forward to having children. I know they'll make me smile.
ReplyDeleteOh, Bob. You're so in touch with your feelings. I love that in a pre-schooler.
ReplyDeleteyeah he's most definitely honest--- and adorable
ReplyDeleteI've been reading your blog for a month now, haven't commented before, don't know why. Just wanted to tell you that your posts are hilarious! Several have literally made me laugh out loud. As a Jr. High teacher, the things your son says really resonate with the things I hear in my classroom. Thanks for the laughs!
ReplyDeleteYou are nurturing an incredibly spectacular mind. Good Job.
ReplyDeleteThere's no pretense with that boy, is there?
ReplyDeleteWay too cute. Found you on twitter, and your blog is hilarious!
ReplyDeleteBob brings a smile to my heart... once again thanks for sharing...
ReplyDeleteAtleast he's honest about it.
