Actual things you actually said (or heard) in the last 24 hours

What I saw the first time was:

my wife knocked a spoon on the floor in front of the 2 year old who said …

It took a second read to notice my mistake. It was a good story both ways :‍)

With my 5yo:

“Are you my Valentine?”
“No.”
“Oh. Are you Mommy’s Valentine?”
“No.”
“Oh. OK.”
“I’m my own Valentine!”

My 2yo:
“I’M MY OWN VALENTINE TOO.”

Are you really not “Mommy’s Valentine”? Does that mean something different over there?

That was my working assumption but the five-year-old later informed that I was my own Valentine as well.

Three years ago, my then five year old daughter gave me a valentine.

“So to recap, this represents the vat of songs, and these figures represent S club 7, or the “singers”, if you will. There’s a lot of them, isn’t there? And it’s this surfeit of S club 7 that’s having such a negative impact on the songs. There’s too many singing staff, and it’s ruining the product. You’d think wouldn’t you, that having so many singers would make it better, but no, it’s making it worse. So, to put it in simple terms, the ratio of S club 7 to the amount of music being prepared is proving detrimental to the songs.”

This might be a first here but my youngest came up to me and said-,
“I wan to eat bwana ba”

This confused me because while I was pretty sure he was saying “Banana” he doesn’t eat fruit like straight out whole if that makes sense? Sensory issue.

So I brought him his AAC. And sure enough-

The extra funny thing is as I’ve prepping for when I’m calling “Mom school” I ordered bananas and I literally haven’t bought bananas for like years. (Thinking of banana breakfast muffins for oldest)

I did it online so it wasn’t verbally said or anything so he had no way knowing Yes for bananas after I already bought bananas.
Dun dun dun!

Sounds like a Bananarama revival.

It hadn’t come yet. I ordered them in the morning , before even awake online.

The most you tried to do with it was hold it in one hand hold my phone the other end. Then you try to give me the banana and then run off with my phone.

Now to get those powers used for the power of good!

Elderly man at the door, looking at his phone: “Do you ever wonder where all the suffering in the world comes from?”

Me: “Are you the Jehovah’s Witnesses?”
