Hearing the shower turn off, Rockstar calls from the bed..
Rockstar: Mu-um! Read my new books!
Me: What, no “Did you have a nice bath, Mummy? Is the baby kicking, are you comfortable, Mummy? Do you feel like reading my new books, Mummy?”
<silence>
Me: Hello, anybody home?
<silence>
I emerge from bathroom…
Rockstar: <conversationally, pleasantly> Did you have a nice bath, Mummy?
(Really can’t tell if he was trying to be funny)

While I catch up with girlfriends, Kings brings Rockstar to meet clients/ friends…
Kings: He. Never. Stopped….. Talking!!
Me: Umm, is that good?
Kings: You try and bring him to meet your friends and see!
Me: (To Rockstar) What did you talk about to Daddy’s friends, darling?
Rockstar: Extinction!
Me: Bankers?
Rockstar: Dinosaurs!
Me: Close.
Rockstar: <Authoritatively> 65 million years ago a big ast-noid hit the Earth and a big cloud of dust blocked out the sun and all the flowers died and the poor dinosaurs had nothing to eat………

And then he finished the Easter egg- dinosaur egg song….
Rockstar:
A bird was looking for
Some Easter eggs
But they all turned
Into dinosaur eggs..
And she was fly-ing
But her fri-ends
Were all ba-bies
And they had Easter eggs that became dinosaur eggs and everyone turned to their pi-zza (he was having pizza for lunch)
And then a cat went after the birds
They were too fat from the pi-zza
And they couldn’t fly a-way-ay..

I don’t think Rockstar was trying to be funny. I believe he has very high EQ so when he heard your reply, he learned from it and was more considerate.
I have a friend whom I admire for being able to take constructive criticism positively. When she says something and someone else corrected her, she doesn’t protest or feel bad or shy. Instead she repeats her sentence after correcting it and continues on.
BTW, I like his dinosaur egg song. Very creative.
Looks fun to be eating pizza in bed. I have never eaten any food in bed because I am afraid of leaving crumbs on the bed and then having ants crawling into my ears when I am asleep, hahahaha.
That is so weird, do u know I’ve always had a thing for as long as I can remember going to sleep re bugs maybe crawling into my ears?? Tho it never stops me eating in bed 😛 I do check for crumbs…
Dunno bout the EQ… He can tell me, along with some friends, things like he is saving the flowers from church (last Mother’s Day) for his dad (I explained it as him not yet understanding the concept of being grounded by his mum :D)
