That silly woman over at TherExtras let me into another one of her Blog Carnivals.
Still no cotton candy... Barbara, are you listening?????
Anyway, Barbara is awesome. She's a therapist, who should probably have a newly founded credential, because she does it all- PT, OT, and although she probably doesn't realize it- SW. And she's smart. And opinionated. And a mom. All wrapped up into a crispy tempura...oh wait- that was my lunch.
I know doods, she totally let me in on her own accord.
I didn't have to buy a ticket or anything.
The topic of the Carnival is Childhood Expressions. So I am reposting two submissions of stuff my kid says that make my face squish up all funny, then I "get it".
New Math
Jaysen: "Let Rylan come out and play with us!"
Me: "No...he just had a bath, and I don't want him to get all dirty. Plus, it's his bedtime."
Jaysen: "Equals what?"
Me: ...huh?
Jaysen: "Equals what?"
Plus it's his bedtime. Got it.
The Case of the Mysterious Thumb-Foot
Jaysen has a hangnail on his big toe. He won't let me try to "get" it, for fear it will hurt worse, so for the last three days, he has been through a battalion of Spongebob band-aids. This morning, he was awkwardly bent over his foot.
"Jaysen, what are you doing?"
"I'm putting Spongebob on my thumb-foot."
His thumb-foot? Ah... I got it.
Be sure to stop by TherExtras and say hi to Barbara!
Tell her mommy~dearest sent you! I hear she has some new tattoos!
Oh wait, that's a rumor I made up about her. Okay, forget the tattoo.
Touche Barbara! Love you and have a great carnival!
I??? Am totally laying off the coffee now...

Re-posting these now is great1 - because the previous posts are closed to comments. No way I can be as funny as you - as a writer. Come to think of it, I look pretty funny these days...
There is still time to enter the carnival - deadline is April 22. The carnival will be published on April 25.
Thanks, m~d!
Barbara
I love the thumb-foot. Totally get it!
MARVELOUS
I simply adore "Plus it's his bedtime." and his response "equals what "
with kids this smart... who needs Rhodes scholars?
I found you via the blog carnival and I enjoyed reading each and every word...
Thanks ... my favorite was = whaT? BEDTIME! :)
So funny, my son always called pant-legs 'toe-sleeves'. Gotta love it
I love these, and they totally make sense to me!
If you can convince Barb to provide cotton candy for the next carnival, I would like to petition for funnel cakes. ;)
LOL, those are too funny, especially "equals what?" :).
Stopping over from Barbara's blog carnival (catching up!)
