castiron: cartoony sketch of owl (Default)

overheard in the Castiron household

In the "fun with middle son's bizarre syntax" department:

Middle son: I want to see four white boys with instruments on Youtube.

Castiron: ????

Middle son: The four boys with white dresses!

Castiron:  Oh, you want to see the Greek Thinkers song.

(Are the Horrible Histories books worth acquiring?  Our library doesn't have any of them in English [though they have three volumes in Spanish], so I can't check them out that way.)

In the "fun with random baby activity and good timing" department:

[Youngest son, in bout of random arm flailing, hits forehead with back of hand.]

Castiron: Oh, I see, you were in the British Army in a former life.

Younger son:  [brief smile]
