Miss-Speak #49 – You Scratch My Back, I’ll Scratch Your Back

#49

All hail the Queen of Everything, as Rockstar sometimes calls her…

Miss (overheard, while walking with Rockstar after school): Ko-ko. Now Miss is going to your friend’s party. When Miss’ friends have their party, you must go also. Ok? (Rockstar snorts and laughs, but doesn’t make snarky reply)

Ps: This our latest favourite gift idea – Lego Minecraft Microworlds. They’re really small, maybe a bit over 6×6 inches thereabouts (which is great because can you imagine at larger birthday parties of 40-60 kids (The Miss recently attended one such as well – I don’t think we even know that many toddlers in total, let alone to all come to that one party!) where everyone gifts giant boxes of noisy alien-invader blaster guns?)

They wrap up just like diamond ore blocks!

(Which prompted Rockstar to ask for one – not the Lego, he has loads, the block – to use as a door stop. Simply unwrap the top, open the Lego Microworld box and take the insides out, before filling with something heavy enough – sand bag, etc. Then if your child is anal retentive like mine, wrap the thing in plastic so the diamond ore-print paper doesn’t tear – it’s just standard wrapping paper I bought online in bulk sometime ago… Now I have to go look for a similar sized box since we junked all our own packagings before Rockstar decided he wanted one…)

And here’s a random pic of the Rockstars to end on, from when we pick the Miss up for party or etc… (Rockstar has on a too-serious-but-starting-to-crack-anyway look because although he was on a super serious day, he said all the Miss’ friends walking around about their own business with the Safari Kid standard issue elephant backpack complete with flappy ears and legs were just too cute…)

“Hee hee hee”
